After graduating with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree at age of 22 (i.e., your 22nd birthday), you start working at a private equity firm. Your monthly salary is $5,000 in the first year and increases 4% every year until you retire at 65 (i.e., $6,240 per month in the second year). In each month, you spend 95% of your salary and invest the remaining in a portfolio that earns 12% return per year.
