April '23 : $100,655
May '23  : $102,304
June '23 : $104,200

--just had a month off of work so won't have much savings coming in for July but I stayed within my budgeted amounts for the trips I had so am happy about that.  I might still be able to stash away a chunk once I start working again at the end of the week.

For me, the progress has not been too bad the past 3 months.  I just upped my deferred compensation by 2% so hopefully that will help.

Wow. In April, I thought hitting $250k by the end of the year was a stretch goal. Now it seems we might hit that early?! Anyway, this is due to DH getting a new job and contributing to retirement plans (none at previous job), and market gains. Keep up the excellent work everyone!

You can really see that acceleration in your numbers. That must feel good! :)

Very happy with this month.
I have had such a patchwork summer work-wise that heading upwards (even in spite of that) feels fabulous!
(Some of this came from accounts that I had small amounts in and I transferred them into my tracking ones)

I fully expect July to be an absolute bloodbath, with dental and auto repair looming large.

As expected, July was very challenging, with $11k in dental and $15k of vehicle expense all landing within a 3-week span.

Maybe I shouldn't include CDs? This is the last large investment I had planned, but this is crazy... I don't feel like a few months was enough time in this race. Also, technically beyond FI and earlier this year I went semi-RE... (starting my own small business, part-time)

If I remove CDs, I'm at 140...

Hoping to hit 200k next month! How exciting

Popping back in this thread just to cheer everyone on.  This felt like the hardest one to get past for me.  You got's this!!!!  See you soon in $250-500k thread.  At $388,000 in there so it I expect to see a lot of you there before I complete that challenge.

Started reading MMM in Dec19, been coming along nicely.

We've got a big move coming up to one of the most expensive locations to live in the world.. but it comes with a pay bump that should cover for the increase in living cost and over time reduce our tax burden. If all goes well I'll be hitting 220k this year, but as I am holding a lot of cash in JPY right now FX is being a big pain in the butt (hence the drop in March just now which is all FX loss :')).

Thanks, I appreciate that.  Nothing happened in our account for 18 months even though we were contributing every month.  It's nice to finally see new highs.  See you in 250-500 very soon I hope!
