[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8M in late 30s including home equity -- $7M invested w/o home equity.  600K HHI and I am the only earner at the moment while DH starts a new company. [/quote]

This is super impressive for the age and $600K HHI. What was your HHI before SH stopped earning? Does this include inheritances?[/quote]

Thanks. DH has always been an underpaid startup tech guy so our stable HHI never exceeded $700K even when were both working. There was one year when he had a larger equity sale (between $1-2M total after tax). His peers in big tech have done mostly better financially with way less risk and better WLB, so we don't consider this a significant exit, we're hoping for the next company!

Regardless, this plus my consistent mid six figures legal job helped us get to $3M invested by 2021, and the rest has been mostly the work of the markets, which has been up nearly 100% since then -- more when slightly weighted for tech stocks like us.

Other factors -- we graduated with no student debt (thanks parents) and delayed having kids until recently due to factors beyond our control, which allowed us to stay in our small condo for a long time and live below our means even while enjoying a luxurious DINK lifestyle with frequent travel and eating out. We're also a one car household with a walkable city lifestyle.  [/quote]
