We made it over 500k!!!
I'm staying right here though.  We only passed the line because we pulled extra distributions out of the business account, and I'm about to pay quarterly taxes.  That will drop us back down well below the magic number.

I've been keeping a plot of my nw regularly since around 2017.  Interesting to see the market downturn has basically flatlined it for me, even with socking away a bunch.  Hanging around the 6 mo. MA.

If there's anything I love more than spreadsheets, it's charts. Can you guess from the charts when I discovered FIRE?

I'm almost even with the start of the year. We did pay off a car, student loan, and a house project which would put us over if not spent.

Rough month! I'm too lazy to go update all of the numbers in here, but it appears that my total investments are now lower than total contributions.

Sliding backwards. It's crazy this is definitely the area you feel the market has more sway than saving amount. I saved more last month in cash terms than I have in a long time, and still had a drop. The good news is when things turn around I should feel more of that tailwind.

9/22: $485,015

[ontheheel]

Still working up for deployment and riding the market roller coaster at the same time. Hit a high of $401k on August 17th, only to see it drop back down, even as I shoveled money into the accounts. Such is life, but now buying stocks on sale.

Trying to make some purchases that will make life more enjoyable while deployed in an austere environment, while not spending my feelings away at the same time. That's a hard thing to do.

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.

Hello everyone.  I finished up the "race" to $250k goal today so here is my first post to track progress to 500.

Net Worth:
January 2020:     $30,773
January 2021:     $82,262 (+$51,489...more progress in one year than previous 48 years)
January 2022:    $161,480 (+$79,218)
October 1 2022  $236,098 (+$74,618....considering a long distance move, furnishing a new home, and the market, I feel good about this)
Today, 10/28/2022: $251,665.  Thank you unexpected market rally, along with payday.

I suppose I'll add my goal for completion of this step.  Nothing exceptionally precise, but hopefully a rough ball park.

Completion goal: Dec 31 2024

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)
August 2022: $451,435 (total NW $617,447)
October 2022: $442,995 (total NW $611,296)

For context: I'm 33 in a HCOL city. I'm married, but these are my own numbers since we keep our finances separate. Includes cash, retirement, and credit cards, which are used for normal expenses and paid off in full every month.

3/19: $83,762.93 (1 year tracking)

11/21: $254,300.88 (graduated to the 250-500k thread)
12/21: $258,452.24 (+$4,151.36, +1.63%)

11/22: $270,565.23 (+$49,383.71, +22.33%)

Between some market recovery and an unexpected small windfall, I'm back in this thread. Fingers crossed I can stay here this time.

My massage program ends this week and I will be licensed shortly thereafter. Also considering going back to a full time office gig for a few years to really throw some money in and do massage as a side hustle. Have a good month everyone!

Been absent from this thread for a while. Regardless, not much has changed in my numbers in the past 9 months

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.

Heading to Hawaii tomorrow for a 20 day vacation - will surely be blowing some money, but looking forward to it. I am now a licensed massage therapist and am opening up my own little business. I also decided to head back to the office full time so DH and I can get back into saving more and I will massage for fun/spending money!

I was happily surprised to pull numbers today. I was pretty late with last month so it's moved quick. We are down to 1 income now but it's offset with paying off a car & student loan in August.

Been a while since I've updated. Back up over $450K again.  Maybe if the market performs well I'll be flat on the year and officially re-graduated haha

[Optimiser]

Hi all. I'm excited to be joining this race. 2022 was pretty good for me from a savings perspective. I got a new job, which allowed me to increase my savings rate and my wife got some inheritance money.

Currently deployed. Less frequent and predictable updates. Hoping to finish the year over $400k

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.
