Luckily, feeling wealthy is less about the money in your bank account and more about your attitude toward the money you already have.
In short, your ability to feel wealthy depends on "what your experiences and perceptions on money are."
This involves letting go of a well-known number like $1 million and embracing your personal financial journey, she says.
Goals such as establishing an emergency fund or improving your credit score, when reached, can help you feel wealthy without having to build a huge net worth.
In other words, you don't need $1 million in hand today to feel wealthy — just a plan to grow your money over time.
