Michael Houghton: If I were to start at zero today, this is how I would build wealth in 2026 and beyond
"One of the questions I get asked most often is this: if you were starting again today, what would you do differently? But if I were starting today, I would think differently to how I got started. Financial independence starts with taking control of your finances."
"If I were starting today, I would spend more time defining the life I wanted, not just the net worth I wanted"
Financial independence starts with taking control of finances. Starting again today would involve thinking differently about the beginning. More time would be spent defining the life you want rather than focusing only on the net worth you want. The approach emphasizes intentional planning for personal goals alongside financial control. By prioritizing the desired life, financial decisions become more aligned with long-term direction. Taking control of finances is presented as the foundational step that enables progress toward independence.
