I keep a spreadsheet in which I track my NW monthly, so I have a running series of columns so I can always look back and see how it fluctuated month to month over time.
I just did a preliminary completion of August (I usually do that, and then update on the last day of the month). I'm happy to report that for the first time ever, I crossed the $3M NW barrier.
I never set a specific exit number, but figured it might be in the $3M - $5M range. I'm starting to feel like it's close to time. I'm 42, the wife is 41. No kids. Both in lines of work (technology) where PT consulting from anywhere is easy to come by, if things ever start to feel too tight, which lends further credence to the feeling that I can do it sooner rather than later.
Anyway, just thought I'd share since I was pleasantly surprised as I saw that number crank out a $3 in front.
[edit -sorry, this probably shouldn't be in the "Hi, I am..." sub-forum.]
