Well, the recent market uptick, combined with home value increase, and continued savings and investments just pushed us over the $1 million mark.* Doesn't feel like anything's changed, but damn, I know from the data I've seen that it's still a relatively rare accomplishment. So I'll just celebrate with a fine craft beer tonight and look forward to the next million somewhere down the road. MMM (and all the knowledgeable folks here who share their wisdom) rocks!
*so, we've been over the million net worth for a while now, but only because my wife's parents' house is in her name. Subtracting that, we can now say we made it to a million on our own (to the extent that anybody in this world can say they did anything on their own).
