Race from 10 to 100k!!

[BestCoast]

New to the thread and the forum as a whole, but long-time reader. Great thread! I'm around $42k, aiming for ~$55k by the end of this year and $100k by the end of 2019.

Roughly $3k/month available to save/invest, so it's little bit of a stretch, but discipline plus modest S&P returns should do the trick!

[Trifle]

Welcome to the forum @BestCoast!  You picked a great place to land.  Good goal -- looks doable, but enough of a stretch to feel challenging! 

And welcome to the thread @PassMMM!  You're doing great.  The end of the year will be here before we know it.   

[QuillScroll]

I was posting on Race to 50k thread, thought will post here as well as am now nearing 50K.

Dec '17	5,500	5,500
Jan '18	5,636	5,808

Total: $11,441 (+441)

It's been several months and a rough go of things. Between a (totally worth it and now 20/20 vision) eye surgery, a breakup, therapy and moving into my own place, my net worth has gone down. That said, the gains I've made in mental health and fortitude have been well worth it. Plus, I think my last figures didn't take into account that I'd be spending $4k on the surgery. I did have to pull from my TFSA a bit because I failed to plan adequately for the sheer deluge of eye drops I would need after the surgery. And I also totally just spent more money overall.

Over the next month, I will have to save seperately for an upcoming trip and the time off always throws me a bit of a curve-ball..will see if I can still manage to grow this section, even a small amount..

It's payday, so time for an update:

Jan 2018 €16.000

June 2018 €23.300 (+2100)
July 2018 €24.400 (+1100)

That's after spending €600+ on a flight ticket. I guess stocks must be up this month? Goal for the end of the year is to hit €30k.

[arob54600]

I forgot for a couple of months, but I really want to stick with this Race to the end!
I have two great news moments-
ONE I got a promotion which results in about a $10,000 a year raise and husband has decided to work an additional part time job. Yay! We're going fast now!
TWO I'm knocked up with our first child.  Most of that new found money will be for health insurance for our new kiddo, but I'm gonna try my damnedest to fill my 401k now, and both our roths.

November 17- 41195
December 17- 42526
January 18- 47966
February 18-47104
May 18 - 48521
(End of July) -53000ish
This is just my investments, doesn't include my husbands. It's hard to track his stuff, he doesn't do anything online!

[paulkots]

Beginning of the year was a disaster but parting out a project car and selling another fun car helped.

11/26/17: $47,707.48
06/22/18: $72,953.75

07/27/18: $71,676.31

Another month of major expenses. Built a deck, planned and paid for future vacation. Hoping all the major expenses are done for this year.(except tires that I will need by middle of October)

Went on vacation for 9 days this month. Nice long road trip with DW, spent about $1,000.
Thought it was going to be a bad month, ended up being a great one anyways!

06/2018: $51084.06
07/2018: $56155.54
08/2018: $55622.63

This month took a big hit, but not as big as I was expecting considering. I don't get paid this month (I'm an academic and don't get paid for the summers) or next month, so it will go down a bit again next month, but I'm prepared for it. Just have to ride it out.

I also got into an accident and have had some medical bills. Unfortunately, there will be some more out of pocket costs I'll have to sustain related to this over the next couple months. So I probably won't see any NW growth for awhile.

Reminding myself, this is what the emergency fund is for...

I'm at 67k today! Started saving/investing seriously exactly 2 years ago, when I had about 5-10k. I expect I will hit 100k right before my next birthday at 28 (about 11 months) if I sell my car.

I've driven my car a total of 5 times the past year, so that's looking more and more likely, especially since my next apartment is right by the subway and doesn't have parking. I just really need to convince myself it's okay to do, I've never not had a car since I was 16 :O.

Congrats! I just turned 28 too. I'm in the same dilemma I put a total of 500 miles (most of which were people borrowing it) on my car last year. Living in a city with car2go's everywhere it makes less and less sense to hold on to it.

This includes all our retirement and personal accounts for assets. It includes our credit cards, student loan, and mortgage for liabilities. It DOES NOT include our home value.

April 2018 - $52,917.42
May 2018  - $58,400.19
June 2018 - $59,686.34
July 2018  - $65,798.53

Great month for the market and our retirement accounts. Trying to kill off some debt over the next few months, so hopefully that will make our number continue to climb!

[zygote]

Hello! I am new to MMM. I'm 28, recently married, and we maintain separate finances. The goal is to be in a strong financial position to maintain flexibility in the future, not necessarily RE. I have a job that I love with amazing benefits, so I am not in a hurry to retire. But as you all know, that could always change.

I have always lived below my means in that I have never held any debt, but I've never really saved. I was a grad student living on a lean stipend in a HCOL city until a year and a half ago. I'm still in the same HCOL city, but now I have a real salary, a defined contribution retirement plan, and access to 403b and 457 accounts.

Current net worth: $48,533.91
Breakdown below...
Cash: $17,747.04
Retirement plan: $18,702.39
403b: $679.16 (Just opened this 1/1/18)
Roth IRA: $11,736.04 (Did not open this until 2016 tax year)
Credit card: -$330.72 (Use this for normal expenses, pay off in full every month)

I was over $50k a week ago, but of course the stock market is going down at the moment. Shares on sale!

3/18: $48,533.91
4/18: $53,215.13 (+4,681.22 - extra paycheck)
5/18: $55,433.65 (+2,218.52)
6/18: $57,041.95 (+1,572.27)
7/18: $59,753.49 (+2,711.54)
8/18: $63,816.19 (+4,062.70)

Thought I would spend a ton this month because I was on vacation, but I actually spent the least I have all year. I'm not even sure why, despite having all the data in YNAB. I guess I better do some soul searching about my normal life. Cutting back should be easier than I thought....

[Mattrim]

June 30: 5828.16$
August 1: 15412.83$ (+9586.67$)

Crazy month in July! Got paid a lot extra from work and managed to save most of it :) I absolutely don't expect this to continue in this pace, especially this month as DW got paid only half of her normal pay. Anyway, super happy with the progress so far!

[drunkatthejug]

Going to toss in here I guess. $65K currently. Changing up some strategies trying to save up for a house down payment in the next 1-2 years or so so I will be cutting my 401k contribution down from 27 to just 10%. Nice to finally join the forums I've learned so much from. Will be in the hello thread sometime this week.

[grantmeaname]

Excellent name, wish I could join you there.

Welcome!

[Jim Fiction]

Hello everyone! It is my first time posting in this thread, I just made by way over from the race to $10k thread which I just surpassed.

Here is a basic breakdown of the numbers as of the end of the day today:

Total Cash/Cash Equivalents: $31,642
Total Liabilities: $20,131

Net Worth: $11,511

Virtually all of my liabilities are student loans. I also have some minor balances on my credit cards, which I pay off monthly. I've been aggressively attacking the student loans (see my participation in the student loan challenge if curious) and have made steady progress.

As for asset composition,  20% are in checking accounts, 13% is in my HSA and 67% is in my 401k.

I'm looking forward to following everyone's progress. Good luck to us all!

Missed a month, but my net worth as of Nov 30th is $18,617.

As the year comes to a close, my next worth is up to $23,350.

Just updated my spreadsheet to record my paycheck. January ends with my networth up to $27,921.

With February officially in the books my net worth is sitting at $30,289.72. A pretty weak month compared to previous. Market losses along with some medical bills are the primary culprits.

Medical bills made March my least productive month in quite awhile, with only an increase of $1,438, leaving the ending balance at $31,728. My employer's quarterly HSA match came in. which represents almost half of the month's gain. My wife and I are expecting our first child in June, so I anticipate similar performance over the next few months... On a positive note, we've met our insurance deductible for the year, so the upcoming bills will be significantly less than they would have been otherwise.

April ends with my net worth sitting at $32,373.

A slooooow-growth month. The biggest dings were income taxes and a myriad of costs resulting for the early birth of my daughter.

Hoping for May to be more productive. Now that my daughter is here we have settled into a routine. Also, the hospital has been kind enough to provide us with a parking pass for the duration that my daughter will be there (probably until her original due date at the end of June), so that takes care of a fairly significant expense. We won't be eating out much either, as we did a bit the first week or so while we got our legs back underneath us. Not sure when the medical bills will start to hit, though...

May ends with a decent amount of growth! Up to $34,659.

June ended around 36,000 (estimate, was too busy to exactly keep track). July ends with my NW up to $38,676.

Happy with my progress, though I've been spendier than I should.  On a plus side, it looks like I'll be taking a new job which should see a ~20% bump in pay, plus a nice sign on bonus. So my NW should begin to grow more quickly! Ohh and my commute will be dropping from 42 miles down to 2.5 miles! As a result I'll be saving a ton on gas and wear and tear on my car.

Those are some great positive changes @Jim Fiction! With the likely new time pressures of being a new dad you will especially appreciate that shorter commute.  It's been a great year for you -- congrats!

07/18  £56,320 (+£6380 ~ +13% )

[MoneyMouse]

I've unfortunately stalled out at $10,000-$10,200 right now.

I may stay at this level for a while, depending on whether or not I get a new job or get support from my current employer to go back to school for a Business Analyst Certificate.

From there, though, I'm hoping to get some earning potential and increase my salary so I can actually save more. Right now, if I keep my current standard of living and increase my salary, I can almost double the amount I save. I could probably save even more than double since my savings rate right now assumes I put away money for school. So once I'm done it or if it gets covered, I can put that money into my savings instead.

I kind of fell off the band wagon a little bit the last few months.  I still saved, but wasn't as mustachian as I should have been.  Promising myself to start making my monthly post here again, and keeping track of my gains.  Hoping for $100k mark by January 1, 2020!

Happy with my progress, though I've been spendier than I should.  On a plus side, it looks like I'll be taking a new job which should see a ~20% bump in pay, plus a nice sign on bonus. So my NW should begin to grow more quickly! Ohh and my commute will be dropping from 42 miles down to 2.5 miles! As a result I'll be saving a ton on gas and wear and tear on my car.

Those are some great positive changes @Jim Fiction! With the likely new time pressures of being a new dad you will especially appreciate that shorter commute.  It's been a great year for you -- congrats!

Thanks Trifele. 2018  has certainly been a whirlwind of a year, but its largely been good so i have to count my blessings! The shortsr commute will be great, it means more time with my daughter.  The new position, should it happen, will come with a better work life balance as well, so its a win, win, win.

Congrats @Tass!  It is not easy to get financial traction in academia and you are doing it. Onward!

[Hirondelle]

Wohooo amazing Tass! And with such ease (as in, you actually managed a .2 as well ;))!

One of my goals is to get to $100K by the end of this year.
It is a stretch goal, especially that I am paying down a (small) car loan (I don't include this in the NW number), and that should be complete by October/November time.

My 2018 numbers:

Aug   $ 81,356    < --  took a big leap when I rolled over an old IRA*
Jul   $ 66,521
Jun   $ 64,243
May   $ 60,386
Apr   $ 56,284
Mar   $ 55,824
Feb   $ 55,756
Jan   $ 51,828

*I have no historic data for the IRA so its only counted in August.
I guess that this is part of becoming moustachian, is tracking down all of your money and making it work!

Jumping in on this thread...although we aren't quite starting from 10K....but we did at one point!

Jan 18   58,329
Feb 18   57,535
Mar 18   56,984
Apr 18   57,914
May 18   53,370
Jun 18   53,211
Jul 18   55,038
Aug 18   56,124


The goal for this year was to hit 85k but it doesn't look like that will happen. I'd be happy with 65k now.

Two years ago, our income went from ~145k to 30k when we moved overseas. I've been in school doing a Master's while my wife works whatever she can pick up so it's been very hard to make progress. But we've managed to make our NW go up over these two years, so for that I am happy.

Will be starting a new full-time job in the fall -> should be able to make it to the 90k mark by end of 2019...possibly the 100k mark if we really push it!

Yikes, negative numbers! *ducks for tomatoes* I can explain! Revamped the balcony, car needed 4 new tires + new exhaust pipe + various little things and I took a holiday to Scotland (which was amazing!!). Ended up -160 in networth even though I tried to keep costs down. Still, all of these things needed to be done and I don't regret my spending.

Excellent work everyone! I have added the median in the chart, it is steady uprising for 2018!

Another month of major expenses. Built a deck, planned and paid for future vacation. Hoping all the major expenses are done for this year.(except tires that I will need by middle of October)

08/23/18: $65,034.83

Bleeding money because of the deck I am building, finish work is taking more than I expected. Also bought those tires that I need and had the suspension rebuilt on the car. Suspension rebuild could have wait..
