Congratulations! and pinch.

Hello, I contributed $6900 to my IRA FEDERAL MONEY MARKET FUND (settlement fund) in VG. My available balance shows $6900 however it is not yet reflecting in my money market fund. It'll probably be cleared by tomorrow or day after. Do I need to wait until the funds are available in the...

Great discipline and progress over the past decade, Soldier. Good luck with your last stretch.

Congratulations on your progress NgineEr. It's crazy, how we think about numbers at the beginning of the journey a decade ago. Almost every underestimates the expenses / lifestyle creep over the long run during accumulation phase. It is also common to underestimate our projected growth of the...

Thanks Koolau. Agree, second million in my case was way faster than the first one. Will start thinking about a date maybe in a couple of years when my oldest starts college. Will keep plugging away and focusing on the FI part. ah, now that you planted this in my head... :coolsmiley:

I’m thinking of putting about 40K in Credit Human at 6% 17 months duration. Never tried this credit union before but seems like an easy process to open an account with $5 membership for those that don’t live in the area where the CU operates.

I’ve seen many houses like these in Los Angeles area where it is not very uncommon to have just garage at the street level. Million dollar view is on the back side where houses is built into the mountain rather than having most of the structure above the ground. IMO, no matter what elevation one...

Awesome list FLSUnFIRE. Some of the nuggets are useful at any stage in life. Hope more 21yr olds read and practice these words of wisdom.

Haha…thank god, I lucked out with only 2 accounts and not having to login frequently. I can see how it can be frustrating in your situation with multiple accounts and OTA’s each time.

Agree on the simplification part. I saw the OTA as an extra layer of protection but see your point of how it can be annoying. Had I not been part of this community, I would’ve built even more complexities in brokerages and other accounts. I am learning the lessons and trying to simplify as much...

Got my $22,416 deposit in the bank. My treasury direct experience has been great. Seamless to open an online account, transact and withdraw. Don’t have a yardstick to compare since I started dabbling in I bonds as recently as Dec 2021
