Hi all,
Another young dreamer here, I'm 32, DH 36, DINK, living in expensive So Cal. Luckily bought a house in 99 thanks to my work's stock going up with the tech bubble - it wasn't a ton, but at least it got me a 10% down payment when I was 24. Been saving in 401k's, started ROTH's a few years ago, and am realizing that I don't want to keep doing what I'm doing now for 30 more years.
So, we're starting to look into what else to do to save, we are pretty frugal to begin with (our first date was cause I got some free tickets and asked him out).
I'd be pretty happy working part time with flexible vacation hours, so I'm trying to figure out a way to do that, DH doesn't know what he wants to do, but he hates his job, so hopefully we can make some changes there soon as well.
Looking forward to participating more. Seems like we've got all the first steps done (only mortgage debt, 401ks and Roth's maxed) and are going to need help in figuring out what to do next!
