Hi All,
I am a new poster who just found this forum. This is exactly what I need. I have long had a goal of retiring at 50, but only in the past year have really written a plan to get it done. This forum helps because it is another place to put my dreams in writing and to seek the support of others. Thanks in advance for that!
About me: 44 y/o female working in financial services. I have a great job (200k salary per year) in a shaky industry. I own two houses, but due to the real estate market, don't have as much equity as I used to. My net worth these days including home equity is around 500k.
In six years, I would like to increase my net worth through saving, investing, and hopefully, future real estate appreciation, to around 1.5 million. That's my financial goal. During the six year period I would also like to learn enough about about myself so that I can do something I love during the next stage in my life and potentially receive some remuneration -- nothing huge, just enough to make my plan work for the long-term.
I hope to learn a lot in the next few years.
