Confused about dryer sheets
Hi! I've been lurking for some time now, but its more fun to participate in the discussions. Thank you to all who share their stories which have been a great inspiration to me!
My wife and I are both 37, we have 2 kids, 8 and 7.
Retirement accounts are around $330K, brokerage and cash comes to about $100K. 529's combined for the kids are at $44K.
Equity we have in our home is at about $121K, we have 25 years left on a 3.5%fixed 30yr mortgage. We still owe about $330K.
Combined, we make around $200K per year and over the last couple years we've managed to ramp up to about $40 - $50K per year in contributions to our retirement savings.
If we hadn't had so much fun and spent so much $ in our 20's we'd really be cooking on our way to FIRE, but we're on the right track now and if we stay disciplined we have a realistic chance at 2036 or thereabouts.
Looking forward to participating in discussions and providing updates at significant milestones!
