The last # is the net change of that month. This is when I stopped tracking as the divorce started. Lost 1/3 to market then 55% to W..

Our net worth less home equity is $446,160. Gosh we feel so far away from our goal of retiring within 10 years. Only a minor miracle would have us retire by my wife's 45th birthday. But we still have strong hopes of getting there before she turns 50! <BR/><BR/>The only thing that keeps me going is that five years ago, the networth figure was actually negative! It was a scary place... At least now we are debt free. Credit scores should be close to 800 by year's end. And standing plastic credit is well over $300K.<BR/><BR/>We try to be as aggressive as can be, but the road ahead is long...Kudos to you for the solid approach you have taken.Nik Peterssonnoreply@blogger.com
