Probably most don’t, especially right now. but it’s still not unusual for 40+.
Saving $2,000 a month from age 22 to 42 while getting 7% returns puts net worth at $1,000,000. The recent inflation has made it hard, but it used to be pretty doable to save $2000 a month on a $55-70K salary (spend under $2000/mo) - especially with good 401K matching.
Good investment companies typically return well over 7%, too, often in the 15% range. At 15% returns, just $1000 a month over that same 20 years results in $1.4m.

Let’s please stop making me defend Patches by moving on to something he’s actually guilty of. I’d much rather post my anti-Patches memes.
It seems pretty unrealistic though to only have $2K in monthly expenses unless you are living with a family member or are renting a bedroom in a seedy part of town. My city is one of the more affordable COL major cities in the US (nothing like NYC or LA prices) and even then you can’t get a rundown roach-infested 1bd apartment in the worst neighborhood for under $850. What’s crazy is that the prices in my smaller hometown in a flyover state are easily twice that of this city, and with very few career opportunities.
Ten years ago, it was very possible to do exactly what I said, and I know many people that did do it, but I can understand it being extremely difficult to do it right now.
Point being, that it’s hard right now does not prove that Crenshaw broke the law on his trading as evidenced by having $315K in his account. While many people wish they had that much right now, it’s really not out of reach, historically, and as also was noted, it can be achieved with just $1k a month savings as well, with higher return rates.
He is dirty.
Sauce, man. Sauce.
Sauce is everywhere.
Do your own homework.
I try to do plenty of homework, here.
You made the claim. Don’t make the claim then act like someone else is the lazy one because they aren’t researching it.
Sorry, but your handful of words with no sauce, or even crumbs, aren’t worth hours of research unless I have an interest, which without sauce in this case, I don’t.
I may suspect he is dirty, and strongly dislike him, but that’s different than asserting he is dirty.
