So I forgot to post for a month, it seems. Whoops. Life has been quite busy. May's net worth dropped to $350,128.79 (-14,548.75).

NW this month is $361,973.80 (+$11,845.01). So still below our March figure, but most of this is attributed to market fluctuations more than anything else, I think. Still purchasing stocks while they're on sale and staying the course.

This is brutal.  I've been throwing about 14k/month into the furnace and it's getting exhausting.  Oh well, I'm just smart enough to know that I'm not smart enough to do anything about it.  Stay the course!!

The first number is retirement related investments, the second is total NW including real estate, cash savings, and other investments. I'm only counting retirement related investments for this race!

December 2019: $292,062 (total NW $423,991)
December 2020: $398,408 (total NW $572,704)
December 2021: $506,167 (total NW $665,639) Graduated for now, hope it holds!
January 2022: $487,694 (total NW $652,192) Didn't hold!
February 2022: $469,440 (total NW $635,429) Dropped out of the next race before it even started....
March 2022: $492,407 (total NW $665,716)
April 2022: $469,971 (total NW $660,188)
May 2022: $460,354 (total NW $640,711) Tough to see these numbers consistently going in the wrong direction despite saving every month.

Was hoping to be on to the 500K-1mil race. Even the conservative goal of December is probably not going to happen. Oh well, grateful for the discount.

This isn't a true net worth as I don't include student loan debt as we will hopefully have most of it forgiven eventually. Also don't include mortgage debt or equity. All this is included are retirement accounts and cash between my wife and I.

Hunkering down. Total income last month (June) was around $16k net, with $600.00 going to my 401(k) as an employer contribution since I maxed out my account in February. Total spending was $7,960.47 -- a big month since I took my SO and both of our moms on a trip to San Juan, and we went to Canada as well to watch the Grand Prix. Car also needed a $1k repair. I expect this month will be a lot more reasonable.

NW this month is $352,262.77 (-$9,711.03). Still trying to climb back to March's high of $364k, but I know that I'm still contributing to investment accounts and that the markets bounce back eventually. Normally I would have a sense of certainty, but there's a lot about today that is unprecedented.

Hoping that I can still make my Q3 goal by September, it should happen.

Forgot to check in last 2 months, summer travels and holidays! Keeping at it! Based on today's numbers my graduation will actually be early 2024 but we'll leave the goal post and see how markets do over the next year, I know I'm actually better off with bear markets at this accumulation stage.

The walk of shame.


Don't worry. I'm right there with you. I too graduated to the 500k->1 million race just before the drop. Just think, you get to celebrate crossing the milestone multiple times. Lol. Seriously though, stay strong, you're not alone.

Been awhile since I checked in here - Q2 was spendy and markets were marketing (and still are). Anywho, we've continued the bulk of our investing but contributions beyond standard 401k/IRA/HSA etc are a bit on the low side since we're saving for house projects and a much-desired vacation.

As I'm living and getting payed in the Netherlands, all my numbers are in EUR.
Only counting my "Early Retirement stash". So this does not include my emergency-fund, pension capital, or payed-off residence. These are the "end of the month" numbers:
Month      Early Retirement Stash   (growth=diff with prev. month deposits=money added) 
Jan 2016  €  58 971.00
Jan 2017  €  86 368.00
Jan 2018  € 119 817.00
Jan 2019  € 145 840.48
...

Skipped a few months reporting here. Actually had to estimate my June numbers ( that's why my growth numbers are identical the last two months).
Basically I'm back where I was 4 months ago while I kept saving.

The first number is retirement related investments, the second is total NW including real estate, cash savings, and other investments. I'm only counting retirement related investments for this race!

December 2019: $292,062 (total NW $423,991)
December 2020: $398,408 (total NW $572,704)
December 2021: $506,167 (total NW $665,639) Graduated for now, hope it holds!
January 2022: $487,694 (total NW $652,192) Didn't hold!
February 2022: $469,440 (total NW $635,429) Dropped out of the next race before it even started....
March 2022: $492,407 (total NW $665,716)
April 2022: $469,971 (total NW $660,188)
May 2022: $460,354 (total NW $640,711) Tough to see these numbers consistently going in the wrong direction despite saving every month.
June 2022: $433,836 (total NW $608,430) sad trombone.
July 2022: $462,612 (total NW $635,206) Hopefully on the upswing now.

Sounds like you've laid a good foundation for it to really take off when the markets rebound.  Good job paying off those loans!

I haven't regularly posted a running log like many here, but this is an exciting milestone to hit so I thought I'd share (brag) here, since I can't share it with most people in my life. I'm just too excited not to talk about it somewhere, even though it always feels a little unseemly to me. These are net worth numbers, index funds plus emergency cash. I don't have any home equity or debt.

01/01/15: $0
04/09/17: $100,000 (2y,  3mo)
02/04/19: $200,000 (1y, 10mo)
02/15/20: $300,000 (1y,  0mo)
12/03/20: $400,000     (10mo)
07/01/21: $500,000      (7mo)


I noted how long each hundred grand took to reach. The consistent acceleration of the pace is really unbelievable. It doesn't hurt that we've been living through this endless bull of asset inflation. It only took ten months to get from 300k to 400k, despite the pandemic panic hitting shortly after the 300k milestone. Surely there's no way this party will last forever. I expect I'll have to fall back below one or more of these milestones soon enough. If I had a high confidence of average real returns going forward, which is to say 6%+ ($30k+ in today's dollars), I'd quit my job today. As it stands, I'll keep working until either we get through a real recession period, or I reach truly wild levels of depression-proof wealth. In the meantime, I'm starting to feel secure enough that I might start behaving more like a confident "SWAMI" at work, instead of a fearful subservient wage slave suck-up.

Congrats to my fellow $500k graduates, Finwiz and joe189man.

Phew! Over a year later, and I'm graduating from this thread a second time. Hopefully for the last time, but time will tell!

I've been swamped with deployment workups the past three months and haven't taken the time to keep up with this. Roller coaster markets galore, and also looking like my rental properties may have peaked in value.

This month, I've finally passed the 400k mark, and hope to keep it that way by the end of the month for reporting. Hoping to graduate from this group before I return from deployment next year.

Net worth consists of equity portfolio, two rental properties, and cash (checking/savings). Liabilities are month-to-month credit card (PIF every month), two mortgages on rental properties, and what’s left of my wife’s student loans.

I haven't been keeping monthly numbers for while because my 401k data no longer imports cleanly into personal capital, but I'm still hanging around the mid-400s after briefly graduating last winter. Feeling very hohumm and mostly ignoring the total until a shift makes tracking fun again. At least my biweekly contributions are building huge momentum to be unleashed on the next up swing.
