I was aiming at 10K a month. Or about 1.2M euro in real estate in Poland.
With arrival of first child my plan stopped 5 years ago at 40% of that.

In most cases you would divide a bigger apartment into rooms. Diving an apartment into smaller individual units is quite more demanding, I’d say… my friend bought a small house and made 10 rooms out of it for construction workers.

5k net a month should give you a comfortable retirement. 7k net for a couple.

From a wealth perspective, 1.2m of capital that yields 5%, 1.8m for a couple.

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!

I have an interview for an in house position (only attorney) at a small non-profit focused on conservation easements. I am a transactional associate at a mid sized law firm. The prospect of freedom from the billable hour and contributing to meaningful work are the draws.
