For the young kids out there, life don’t always go to plan. Like when the first wife takes half of your 25 mil in the divorce and your cranking out 25% in after tax income in child support. Set a small goal. Say enough to throw off 100k after tax. That means you can live modestly and do whatever you want: paint, travel, fees kids in Africa, whatever makes you happy. 2 mill at 5% gets you that. Anything above is gravy and you should treat it that way.

Financial independence is my biggest milestone - the point at which the return on my assets is greater than my expenditure. Points on the way include maxing out my employer matched pension contribution, getting my savings rate to 75% of my take-home pay, and getting my gross income over £100k. Next on the list are buying a house, paying off the mortgage (value prob about £400k). After that, I can do what I want with my life.

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?
