Averaging a 32.5k increase in NW per month over the last four months. At any earlier time in my life that would have felt like an unbelievably rapid increase. It's amazing how quickly things begin to feel normal.

Somehow I've missed the whole "Throw Down the Gauntlet" forum during my time on MMM.  We joined this particular race last year.

DateInvestments+Cash
July 1, 2020$836,180
October 1, 2020$1,051,183
January 1, 2021$1,199,184

We're due for a quarterly tally tomorrow.  And I don't really anticipate us racing to (or even reaching) 2M.  I'm still working FT, but DW isn't, and I plan to join her in the next year or so.

If you left your car with the valet, that was a scam.

It's funny -- I was always a set it and forget it kind of investor, but I'm increasingly excited to do these quarterly totals.  I find myself doing it monthly, for no good reason. :)

Slowly cranking along here in snowy AK. Getting to the point where my contributions seems to be dwarfed by the market gains.

LNW
2015- $482k
2016- $627k
2017- $811k
2018- $813k
2019- $1.08M
2020- $1.35M
2021 Q1- $1.435M plus the kiddos 529 and brokerage accounts are sitting at $121k.

2015 YE     $0.81M    $1.23M
2016 YE     $0.96M    $1.40M

Another solid quarter in the books. Getting closer and closer to our FIRE number of $2.1M CDN LNW.

                 LNW    /  TNW
EOY 2018 -  877K  / 1.02M
EOY 2019 - 1.12M / 1.275M
EOY 2020 - 1.33M / 1.5M
EQ1 2021 - 1.39M / 1.59M

Solid quarter.  Let's have 3 more like it and I'll be thrilled.  I actually suspect, as most do, that we're going to be in some boom times shortly, as the economy ramps up with end of lockdowns and all the helicopter money from the government.  I think that last bill was horrible policy that we will pay for down the road, but in the short term I think it bodes well for the stock market. 

I wish I had any idea what the heck to do with my bond allocation, as it seems like most folks are predicting bad performance for all the traditionally 'safer' investment vehicles, whether they be bonds, cash, or REITs.

1/1/21: $1.370M / 1.883M
2/1/21: $1.392M / 1.914M
3/1/21: $1.451M / 1.973M
4/1/21: $1.434M / 2.010M

Big changes this month: we purchased a second house, so a bigger chunk of our net worth is illiquid (plus we took a hit on transaction costs on the way I'm marking the house equity to market).  Planning to move to that house and sell the current one, but we'll have at least 4 months of owning two houses!  Doing my best not to think about how much carrying these houses is costing me; with the housing market as crazy as it is I think it was the right decision to scope out and purchase our new house early.

I definitely didn't realize it until now - our liquid assets almost absorbed the loss of ~$90k on down payment and closing costs we put into the new house with the growth this month.  Crazy.

Keep waiting for the other shoe to drop with the market, but that increasingly gentle (in relative terms) upward pressure from still accumulating helps a little too.

Hit $1M on 8/9/18
 
12/31/18 $932K
12/31/19 $1.265
12/31/20 $1.606

Random updates from this year:
02/22/21 $1.705
04/06/21 $1.760

Can we hit $2M by year end?!  I sure hope we can!
If we do, will I stop working?  No, not yet.  I kinda want to but I kinda don't.

Here's what we put away each year:
19.5K 401K
18.0K 403B
18.0K 457B
12.0K IRA (part traditional, part Roth)
15.8K taxable investments
-----------
83.3K total

we also get employer matches of 13.3K, bringing our total savings to $96.6K.  So I need market gains to kick in ~$300K plus during the year.

Joining the group here. We entered the year at $1.1MM. Myself 32 and wife 34 in a HCOL city with one kid. The invested stash is 0.95MM, rest is home equity. Our income is pretty lumpy due to meaningful component coming in the form of a YE bonus. I'm DCAing the bonus but wishing I had dumped it all in when I received it at beginning of January. I figure it will take 3-4 years to get to the 2MM mark.

History:
1/2015: 0.42 MM
1/2016: 0.56 MM
1/2017: 0.84 MM
1/2018: 0.95 MM
1/2019: 1.10 MM

Update
1/2020: 1.47 MM
1/2021: 1.85 MM
4/2021: 2.00 MM

Surprisingly, the progress from $1MM to $2MM went faster than expected. I will be 35 this year and am thrilled with our progress. Each milestone motivates me even more.

It basically took ~3 years to double from $500k to $1MM, and less than 3 years to double again to $2MM. I'd be shocked if the bull market will assist in making it double again in another 3 years, but we'll do our part on the savings side!

TBH - I don't post here a lot but do lurk often, these types of threads keep me motivated to "graduate" to the next challenge.

Jan. 2018: $377.3k
Jan. 2019: $499.2k
Jan. 2020: $710.5k

This year:
Jan. 2021: $1,055.8k
Feb. 2021: $1,082.5k
Mar. 2021: $1,166k

$25k from March 2021 was cash from a cash out refi, this only counts our retirement, investments, and cash. So 529s and home equity are considered separate.

Hit a million investable assets Jan 7 or 8 this year. Currently at 1.089 million.

I'm retired so I am taking out and not adding. I retired April 2017 at age 51 with 625k investable assets.

Welcome @Digger1000!  I just hit $1M invested last month and joined the thread as well.  Similar story -- DH and I FIREd in January of 2019 at 51, on a combined $750k in investable assets.  We're keeping our spend modest (under 40k per year, family of 4) and it's been amazing watching the stash grow even though we're not contributing anything.  I read another post you did, and your spending levels are badass -- well done.

Reading about the two of you is really inspiring.  I'm 44, and we've got investable assets of $1.2 million.  I *think* that's enough, but I want to track our spending for a year to be sure.  We just moved from the US to Canada, so I want to make sure it's comparable.  Seeing messages like yours is reassuring.  Thanks!

Recently passed the 1 million mark and graduated the last thread. It took exactly 3 years to double from 500k to 1 million. I am married and we both still work. We are at the point where we could sell our house in Seattle and retire to a lower COL area, but plan to keep working for a few more years yet.

April 2021: 1.03 Million

Glad to be here :).

I hit 1.1 million at todays close. I always wanted to be able to say 1.something million. I'll enjoy it for a day.

A million isnt very much to me. When I was a kid 200k was equal to what a million is today.

Haven't been consistent at posting progress, so rather than doing regular intervals, I'll just note when I hit certain milestones:

Mid 2019 - First passed $1M
March 2020 - dropped to $840K (covid)
April 2020 - reclaimed $1M
June 2020 - passed $1.1M
August 2020 - passed $1.2M
January 2021 - passed $1.3M
April 2021 - passed $1.4M

We seem to be on a similar trajectory. I don’t check that often either but your first and last data points are the same as mine :)

$1.7m this week 👍

And a big work bonus to come next week, woo hoo!

Adding my most recent work bonus to that would make it $1.708 million.

You may depend on a larger bonus structure than I do!

Mine was slightly larger, and the tax that was taken out of it made me go OUCH!

For almost 9 years on this forum I’ve been stunned at how quickly the stash is accumulating. And it’s accelerating faster than I ever thought it would now.

$1.75m earlier this week!

Only $250k to $2m.... that’s about a years worth of growth to go. Mind blowing.

I was fortunate enough to finally hit this milestone. Feel confident that I am enough over that it will stick.

Welcome aboard!  We've been gaining folks on one side and graduating them out the other at a pretty fair clip this year.

Thank you! The markets have been good to me. I haven't even been putting new money in and have even sold off some company stock for a large purchase. It feels great.
