Alexis, 55, and Olivia, 54, are working towards their retirement so they can spend more time with their son. On paper, they’re in a good financial position, with a net worth of over $3 million… but they’re spending more than they make every single month. And, there’s a big secret to their wealth that they didn’t realize until this conversation.
