First post, I really like the concept of solidifying this and don't have much encouragement on the FI/RE side from the DW or friends yet.

Seeing as I'll almost be at 10K next friday I figured I'd avoid the single post in the sub 10K thread.

*I foolishly bought a condo (at least it's walkable to work) before getting serious about FIRE and don't count it in my net worth calculation (as hard as that is to watch the 75K hit - it is real).

Student Debts are at 2.7% so min payments only, and my house is at 2.19% (Canada) so it's all Questrade ETF investing from here, budget alots for $2122 biweekly (to hold myself accountable).

Condo has value, so you should include it unless you're just doing invested assets. I'd say either include both (mortgage and condo value) no exclude both.

Thanks for the welcome!

I was just doing invested amounts over debts, as that's my liquid net worth. Condo is worth 509K and the mortgage is at 403K, with other assets being debt free (motorcycle / truck) but also not included. Figured a case study is in order in due time to deal with all of that..

You've got some nice monthly progress going there Jeeebus.  You're in the phase where if you "set it and forget it", and then increase the savings where/when you can, you will be there before you know it!

edit- any plans to make sure you hit that 100 this month? As I get closer, I'm trying to figure out even more ways to speed it up.

We'll hit 100k next month unless the market completely craps out or some emergency happens. It's not a rush, though. 3 years ain't too shabby. You'll do it in about half that time.

I want to get into this race.  My current net worth is $82,123.14 as of today.  I think I can get to $100,000 by the end of the year.

I've decided to use a whole new metric. Instead of net worth, I'm just going to track what's in my retirement accounts (not my husband's and not my pension). Our mortgage is less per month than rent would be, and the money in our accounts is for specific things like car repair, home repair, and emergencies, so it is there to be eventually spent. It's the retirement accounts that we're going to have to live off of, so that's what matters. Also, in this political climate, I'm not sure my pension will make it to retirement with me.

That puts me at 81,000.

Congratulations Dogboy!

We followed a very similar trajectory and we're the same age. Congrats!

I never realized just how close our numbers were, very cool! Looking forward to following and tracking our progress in the 100-250k group.

Great job everybody. Looks like there are several of us that will be graduating very soon.   I hope that by end of May (June 1st) that I will hit 100K but more likely it will be end of June.
As always it depends largely on the market. And I don't include my house value since it's not an asset to me until I sell

I only really track my 401k balance (at end of month) and only for the last couple years. 

In my 20s I put something like 10% in and thought I was doing great (better than average), we also tackled 1 student loan, 2 car loans, credit card debt, and bought our 1st home (now a rental).  For the last several years I have only been putting 6% (plus a company match) into the 401k, while we saved for a wedding, down payment on a house, started a family, went to 1 steady income and 1 self employed income, and are continuing the last student loan.  We are still working on paying off my last student loan and building the self employed income but I am really hoping to hit $100k in the 401k sometime in 2018, if the self employed income starts taking off and we can contribute more to an IRA I will add that into the calculations too.

Dec 2013: $43,660
Dec 2014: $52,943
Dec 2015: $55,622
Dec 2016: $68,870
Feb 2017: $74,784

I did do a quick back of the envelope net worth calculation that included debt, primary and rental home value, and vehicle value and that put net worth around $150k, but since I don't regularly track that stuff I don't want to join the next group until the retirement accounts are above $100k.

April finished off with an overall increase of almost $1900 in the 401k and $326 in the IRA.

Welcome Unlikelycrotchgardener!  That is quite a username.  Afraid to ask if there's a story there.

You've made some great progress since the beginning of '15.  Way to hang in there when the income took a hit.

Haha, thanks Trifele. I used a random username generator to come up with that one and it made me laugh, so I used it. Had a change of heart and switched it again.


Hi everyone, first time posting. Just found MMM in the last 2 months. To cut costs the company I work for reduced salaries by 20% from April - August last year. As you can tell, I did not adjust my spending and my savings in 2016 suffered. They will be doing that again this year and I'm hoping posting here will help motivate me to really cut my spending during these reduced salary months! I also have the benefit this year of having discovered Mustachianism, so hopefully I will make some nice progress.

April was the first month of summer-time 20% pay reduction, so I didn't make great progress this month. May will hopefully be better, and my tax return should come in this month.

I'm going to try to track my NW monthly this year to chart my progress. Starting 2016, I had a NW of $50,000. I'm hoping to grow it to over $75K.
Once I get to $100K, I think I will give myself permission to move into my own apartment, as I've spent the last 8 years living with the same roommate--saving a ton of money, but not getting as much privacy as I'd like.

Jan 2016 - $50,000
April 2016 -$57,000
May 2016 - $60,000
June 2016 - $63,000
July 2016 - $69,000 (profit sharing, plus market doing better - so glad I front loaded this year!)
Aug 2016 - $72,000
Sept 2016 - $74,000 (markets down, same deposits though)
Oct 2016 - $74,000 (uggghhh...)
Nov 2016 - $78,000 :D
Dec 2016 - $84,000 (Wooooo! Dale tu cuerpo a alregria, Macarena...!)

Jan 2017 - $87,000 (so far two paychecks front-loaded to 401K at 80%)

Crossed $90K just now, yay!

$95,500 as of today. Still hoping to graduate this level by June, with any luck.

Now sitting at $98,300. I moved out to my own rental house in February, and even though it was before my goal of hitting $100K, I've still managed to raise my net worth considerably despite my increase in cost of living. I guess I have the inflation of the market to thank for that.

Going to jump into the race. Feels great to be working up for a change :)
I am currently only counting invested assets and savings and not counting house as it is my home and not really very liquid :)

May 5th, 2017 Questrade: 18534; Tangerine: 2054 RRSP and 4482 in savings: Total: 25070

Mar 1 2017   $65150
Apr 1 2017   $70592
May 1 2017   $76536

This month I am expecting a bonus of about $2500 (after tax) due to RSU vesting.  So, hopefully May 1 - June 1 will have a slightly larger than usual bump.

close!

edit- any plans to make sure you hit that 100 this month? As I get closer, I'm trying to figure out even more ways to speed it up.

I'm in the same boat. I am at $98K right now and should have no problem hitting 100K by the end of June, but I'd really be excited if I could make it happen by the end of this month. I don't really see any way of expediting it except relying on the market to stay high, though.

I haven't updated for a while - been on holiday and missed a few entries. Saving is going ok - should pick up now with fewer medical expenses and no holidays booked.

Good to see everyone's progress - keep it up!
