I made it to $1 million in net worth on June 1st, 2016. I barely made it over the threshold: $1,000,097.73. I expect this amount will fluctuate greatly with the ebbs and flows of the market, and it will be awhile before it stays consistently above seven digits. I invested my first dollar on September 1, 1999 so it took me about 16.8 years to touch the 7-digit mark through various savings rates. I am happy that I made it to two commas, but the journey continues.
