$693,500 all-time high. All index funds. No RE.

I did this on an income of $28k-$70k. I am the underdog.
It's definitely doable if you keep costs down. I have never made more than $49K in a year and my average income is under $30K and I have over $500K at 44. My best earning years were in my 20's and I had over $100K saved before I turned 30 and then the long bull market started right after that. So even though I have average under $25K a year income in the last 13 years my net worth has still tripled in that time. Start early, that is the key.
