StackOfCoins.com (Jay):
Enjoyed reading the other race threads!
I am 39yr old, married. I work in technology operations, wife works in education.
Numbers below exclude current residence.
April 2015 - hit $1M (yay! big milestone for us :)
August 2016 - $1.2M
Happy investing!
TheAnonOne:
My #Number is 1.4M to 1.625M, but I only have ~230k invested (330k+ total) right now. (though increasing fast)
I think you'll find that MOST here never plan on hitting 2 million and quite a few are done in the 750k zone.
By the time I can officially join this race, you'll probably be done! (another 6-8 years or so...)
MishMash:
I'll join in too, our number is 2 million (not including DHs pension). Stupid high for this forum, I know, DH still isn't 100% on the frugality thing, and we plan on living in a HCOL area. DH also has to do 5 more years to secure the lifelong health care and pension sooo why not continue to build the stash.
33 (me) and 36 (DH) here TNW 1.34 Investable 1.21
And before anyone asks, we don't include DHs pension in the calculations because if he gets booted prior to his 20 year mark he gets zip, nada, nilch. So until he hits that 20 year mark we have chosen to not include it in NW or income calculations since it is not a sure thing.

It's fun to support & encourage one another on this journey.
@TheAnonOne Good to know. I'm curious if there is better forum for this race? You will join us soon enough, especially if this market keeps grinding higher & higher!
@Mishmash Thanks for joining & sharing your progress!
OurTown:
Good luck to these participants! Before anyone gets all self righteous, a 4% SWR on $2 million is only $80,000 per year.
FWIW I think my magic number will be a modest $1.25 million.
