5 Things Wealthy People Do at Year-End (That Most People Don’t)
If you want to build wealth, the best place to start is by copying the habits of people who already have it. Wealthy families follow a simple year-end routine — and these five things make a massive difference in their financial success over time.
In this video, I break down the 5 year-end financial habits wealthy people review every single year, and how you can use the same framework to transform your finances in 2025 and beyond.
We cover:
• The #1 metric wealthy people track (net worth)
• How much they save — and why savings rate matters more than income
• How the wealthy review investment performance and rebalance
• Tax strategies they look at before December 31st
• How they align goals and spending for the new year
These aren’t complicated strategies — they’re simple, repeatable habits anyone can follow, especially middle-class families trying to get ahead financially.
If you want to start the new year with clarity, confidence, and a real plan, this video will walk you through exactly what to review and how to get on track.
