9 Dimes Project exists for one reason: to help young adults build their first $1,000,000 starting from a normal paycheck — with or without a college degree.

Most money advice is built for people who already have mortgages and 401(k)s. We’re talking to the 17-year-old making $15/hour who wants to retire a millionaire. No fluff, no gatekeeping — just real numbers, real math, and a real plan you can start today.

What We Believe

Wealth isn’t about income — it’s the gap between what you earn and what you invest, repeated with discipline. Our signature framework is the 50/30/20 rule: 50% Needs, 30% Wealth Building, 20% Wants.

What We Cover

Budgeting, saving, investing from scratch, credit, debt freedom, side businesses, no-degree career paths, and the milestones from your first $10K to your first $1M.
