New portfolio milestone hit today.
**** is getting realer.
Congrats!
Just did my net worth update last night, up 40% in one year. If I remove home equity so just looking at cash and investments, which is what my FI number is based on, it's actually an even higher gain at 46% YoY. That's both saved/invested earnings and gains, of course, but still good to see that kind of progress. If I could somehow manage that again between now and next June, which would also coincide with the month my daughter finishes college, I'm going to have some real options. But that's probably not too realistic as last year was the best year of my career combined with the current close to ATHs in the equity markets.
It does have me considering speeding up the glide path to my retirement portfolio allocation just a little, as I was planning another 4 years for that. Might cut that time in half.
