You have money in savings.
40% of Americans can’t cover a $400 emergency in cash. Even if your savings isn’t where you want it yet, having money set aside matters.

You own a home.
About 35% of Americans don’t own a home. If you do, that’s another way you’re building wealth over time.

You’re investing for retirement.
37% of Americans have more credit card debt than money invested. If you’re consistently investing for your future, keep going.

You’re content with what you have.
This one is harder to measure, but it matters SO much. Contentment makes it easier to save, give and say no to lifestyle creep.
