  1. But where do you get the capital to earn the interest. Isn't that the "difficult," part?

  2. You do what most post WWII babies do: you inherit it! Or at least live in a community property state!

    Seriously, stop spending and start saving. If you pay yourself first, minimize materialism (shockingly logical but un-American) and simply invest in a 401K or Roth IRA, you would be earning interest.
