Looks like we met our 2017 goals but I am not confident that 2018 will be the same. We went through a move and 3 job transitions between the two of us this year. We also moved to an HCOL area where our housing expenses have significantly increased. The good news is our salaries have increased by around 21% and there is much greater potential for salary growth where we are now.
IF we can continue to meet our goals it will most likely be driven by a hot stock market or the crazy real estate market we are currently in. I guess only time will tell. :)
