Yesterday, I looked at my Fidelity balances for the past year. My overall balance (50/50 AA) was about the same as it was this time in 2019. And it was about the same as it was when I FIRE’d in 2017, despite a yearly W/D amount of around $60K.
Now I attribute this to the wild rise in the S&P over much of that period, so I am pretty sanguine about this state of affairs. I look at stocks in much the same way as I look at my house. It’s fun to look at and speculate about the price, especially when it is up, but it *never* matters until I have to sell.
Does this make sense to look at it this way?
