WOW.. time is just flying still. I last posted here in April. In that time we have seen Covid and downturns. I put some of those that work directly for me on Furlough, brought one back and ended up having to let a 30 year employee go without a job transition plan.
So here I am doing my job and doing her job and training a new person that I had hired before the furlough, and and and.... it was a nice break from work stress but its all back again.
The good thing is that 2022 is not so far away anymore but even better, my DW has always been very tentative on 2022. When I would mention it, she would roll her eyes and give me the "you keep saying it but" look. I finally got her to sit with me and go over all our finances and she has now gotten on board. That makes it even more exciting. A few good turns and we might FIRE a little early. We will see.
All that being said. NW is climbing past the 1.4M mark. I've done the numbers and if we went today, we would be just fine. But sticking with the plan unless the wife gives me the "why not now" conversation. LOL
