Happy Birthday* to me!
« on: May 11, 2016, 06:51:03 PM »
The recent uptick in the stock market set my cumulative retirement account balances just barely over six figures**! And a few weeks ago, I hit my most recent net worth goal! Both goals felt very much out of my reach when I set them several years ago, but I did it!

Thanks so much to Mr. MMM and everyone on this forum who helped me understand that these entirely ridiculous sums of money were actually a thing people in real life did.

Onward and upward!



*Note: It is not my birthday

**Which I fully expect to drop again in the next day/week/month

Nice job! Also, love the username - it reminded me of one of my favorite internet things (which I'm guessing is one of your favorites too) => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCpjgl2baLs
