Have 80K of cash I've received from death of family member invested over 3 to 5 month period (other chunk of it will be donated).

Continue my annual saving minimum I set this past year of at least 40K a year. My saving rate is around 50% with this number. This past year, I was able to save closer to 50K due to pandemic. We got a 5% raise so I think that 50K again should be an attainable target.

Hopefully hit 500K net worth, majority of it invested by the end of 2021. I will be age 32.5 then. I have about 14.5K in student loans which I don't care to pay off quickly because they are at around 2%.

Really hoping to be able to find property to purchase for investment living/future investment purposes in the fall. Instead of putting cash towards it, I'd like to borrow against my investment accounts which would be at a very low interest rate and use that as a down payment.

42F dating 42M for 9 months. We used to live about 30 minutes away from each other and saw each other once a week, but I moved a few months ago (now10 minutes away) and we still only see each other once a week. He calls me every night and we talk on the phone for 1-2 hours. We do lots of fun stuff together- art fairs, sporting events, and just relax and cook together and watch some movies. He sees his friends once every couple months. Am I wasting my time with this guy? No kids/don't want kids
