How difficult is it to become a millionaire? It's probably not as hard as you might think -- if you plan ahead.
成为百万富翁很难吗？如果你提前进行规划的话，这可能也不会像你想的那么难。
David Bach, the author of "Smart Couples Finish Rich," came up with a chart showing how much money people at different ages should set aside each day to save a million dollars at age 65.
戴维·巴克是《聪明夫妻爱理财》一书的作者，他制作了一个表格，告诉大家如果你想在65岁之前存下一百万，那么不同年龄段的人每天需要存多少钱。
Do you want to become a millionaire? Bach says the key is to start investing as early as possible.
你想成为百万富翁吗？巴克表示，关键是要尽早开始投资。
For simplicity, the calculations assume a 12% annual return and don't take taxes into account.
为简单起见，这个计算假设每年的回报率在12%左右，而且不考虑纳税。
So where do you start? Experts recommend to start investing in your 401(k) or Roth IRA.
所以，你从什么时候开始呢？专家推荐从你的401(k)退休储蓄计划或者罗斯个人退休帐户开始投资。
Bach also advises to refrain from spending on small daily purchases like buying coffee every morning and instead to invest that money. Decades from now, that money will be worth enough for you to buy more than just one coffee.
巴克同时还建议，可以限制在小型日常消费上的花费，比如每天早上买咖啡，而把这笔钱用于投资。几十年后，这笔钱绝对不再是只用来买一杯咖啡。
