Let’s face it—the way our parents earned their wealth is probably not the way we will earn our wealth. We want to work smarter not harder. And maybe what the term “wealth” means to other generations is not what wealth means to us. Times have changed and we are evolving. The typical American Dream used to be: get married, buy a house, have kids, pay off that house, finally retire, and then live off your hard-earned money. Wealth to that generation was simply to get to a comfortable retirement. But the dream of the next generation looks different, so the way we view wealth has to change too.
The difference with our generation is a desire to work to live, not live to work. We want purpose and fulfillment and to make an impact today and in the future. We are not rushing to retirement—we want to enjoy this ride called life and enjoy the money we earn along the way. Wealth to us is having the time and freedom to do what brings us joy. That’s why in our lifetime—compared to our parents—we are renting longer, getting married later (if at all), and changing careers more times than they did. We are evolving. We are getting off the “machine” and paving our own path forward into a future we are choosing to create ourselves.
Morton Capital supports the notion that you can enjoy your earnings today while building wealth for your future. So much so that we are developing an educational channel called Modearn Wealth that will cater to the “earners” out there—a space that will guide and support an evolved wealth journey. Through this community, we want to support you in harmonizing the relationship between your purpose, your emotions, and the process of investing. The goal is to guide you towards empowerment, helping you take steps towards achieving life the way you want.
We know there are many resources out there—too many in fact. By reducing the chaos and filtering out the noise, we will narrow down relevant financial materials in an easy-to-understand format, through clear and approachable communication. By focusing your attention on what serves and moves you forward, you will be empowered to confidently make better financial decisions for your present self and future experiences based on your own unique circumstances and goals.
