Milestone Achieved!!

August 22nd, 2014 at 01:04 am

My personal Roth IRA account has passed the $100,000 mark today! Specifically, my account balance ended up at $100,033.02. It feels good to reach that milestone and with my automatic investment tomorrow it may go even higher.

I added up the remainder of the retirement accounts and we are less than $3,000 away from meeting a combined retirement balance of $300,000. I'm really thinking we can meet this by year end unless the market drops significantly. I do know we plan to invest nearly four times the shortage amount, so you can see why I expect to meet the goal. Smile

Have you checked your retirement balances? Are you pleased with your progress for the year? What is the next milestone you are looking to reach?

    That's a great achievement! You've been really focused. Our median house price is $540k, so most of our money goes on the mortgage rather than retirement, plus we have the automatic 9.25% from your employer, so you don't think about it as much (well, before I started reading SA :-). )
