Me and my neighbor went through their purchase process and I ended up returning the car while they kept theirs.

The issue I had was the car had far more cosmetic issues than reported on their website, and whoever handled the transportation was not careful which may have resulted in more damages.

The neighbor went through with the purchase but the title transfer took MONTHS and the temp tag expired, so they weren’t able to legally drive the car for a very long time.

Here’s my plan of attack:
- $30K saved right now ($20K in IBonds and $10K cash)
- $90K saved by July 2023
-$130K saved by 2023 and target a $800K home

I’m maxing out my 401K, traditional IRA and HSA this year and paying for some house improvements. I have about $750K total investments and very close to $2M net worth, but realize that I am behind on investments if I want to do FIRE. I was focused on paying off huge chunks of my mortgage and managed to whittle it down to $75K left. Would you suggest I go ahead and pay that off this year? Or pause and do a mega back door roth instead? I’m mid 40s. Thanks!
