Congrats! And double congrats on a good username.
Speaking of projections, I have been graphing monthly income, spending, and theoretical stash income for a few years and have determined through using good old y=mx+b that I will be FI based upon liquid assets in somewhere between 5 to 9 years (because my monthly spending has error bars.) It's hard to believe, but I'll take it. Even the longer projection puts me FI while my tots are still in college. If the market does a nose dive soon, I suspect it will actually help me in the long run since I'll continue to contribute, so no worries.
I love this website :-)
