Interesting milestone
« on: November 03, 2013, 07:36:28 AM »
Someone at Bogleheads posted and interesing milestone.  His 401(k) hit $401k. 

Not sure when that happened to me, all my 401ks have long simce been rolled into IRAs. 


Still, a cool milestone to track.

We never stayed at any one job long enough to hit $401k.  I think the largest is at $250k (Mrs. RootofGood's).  We'll probably keep it since it has Vanguard institutional funds.  Let's hope one day it hits $401k.

That's just cool.  I don't know when we hit that milestone, but if I had realized, I'd have celebrated by cooking a nice meal or something.

Nice one!!  I will try to mark that occasion... though mines only at $31K so it will be a while!

Unfortunately, I have a 403b, so I'll never see that. Guess I'll shoot for 403b(illion) instead.

When I was a kid, I thought that 401k's were accounts that had 401,000 in them always. I was silently baffled for years.

I don't think either of us will stay in the same job long enough to reach this milestone, but it is a really cool one!
