Pretty big day here in the YeahNo household. Of course I can't share this with many people in "real life" so wanted to share it here. It has been a long road to get here. I've owned a manufacturing business for 10 years and have continuously lived below our means, worked my ass off for 8 of those years, kept lifestyle inflation at bay as much as possible, and just tried to do everything by the book. I've had a goal for awhile to hit it by 35 and I just barely did that (turn 35 this year).
While our business is worth much more than 1m on paper, I've always had a goal to reach 1m completely separate from our business assets as who knows if we'd ever realize the business worth (from a sale standpoint).
I am so thankful that David Bach visited one of my college courses and gave me his book, Automatic Millionaire. That is the beginning of a 15 year transition from broke college student to millionaire.
As others have stated, reaching the two comma is a some what muted celebration -- nonetheless I would definitely say just a bit more uncertainty and stress has been lifted off my shoulders.
Anyways....PRETTY SWEET!
