It's like saying, why don't we all go homeless and take those 'savings' and invest them to become multimillionaires in 45 years?

I cross checked it over at http://wealthbuildinglessons.com – go to calculators and click on compound interest.

start with 0, put 2400/year over 45 years at 8% and see what you get.
