Not yet! I was perhaps a bit naive when I started on this journey 10 years ago! Two young kids and a mortgage still to be paid off… so full retirement is still a bit away.

Illinois has an estate tax of 16% on estates exceeding $4m. And the tax isn't on the amount exceeding $4m - the tax is 16% of the whole estate.

Don't know if you know that, but you're heading into a financial situation where you should do some estate planning.

Early 40s celebrating retroactively on Veterans Day this year:

$1M net worth with >75% in non-real estate investments!

Had a cigar, a whiskey neat and meal-prepped for the next week at work.

Thank you to all the folks who post informative, motivating ideas on this forum. You're helping in ways you don't even realize!
