[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$2m in my personal accounts, which I just hit.  "My" accounts means my retirement, brokerage, and investment real estate.  This doesn't include home equity, 529 plans or DH's accounts.  $2m was my "number" and I feel like I could lose my job or retire now.  Yes, we are married and I understand how community property works, but for me, it was more about feeling financial secure as an individual within our marriage or if DH dies or we get a divorce.

That's really good, what age range are you? Good at any age though.[/quote]

39.  The thing that keeps me going right now is that our youngest child's 529 plan isn't fully funded, but I think I'm going to lump sum my bonus this year into that account.  I am a checklist person (maybe to a fault), and this is the last thing I feel like I have to accomplish financially in my current job.  Once that's done, I'm going to approach my firm to see if they'll let me cut my billable hours to 1000 annually, but still qualify for benefits including health insurance and 401k.   I don't want to sit around and do nothing, but I want to be able to take a month long summer vacation, a 2-week winter vacation, and a spring break and fall break.  Perhaps this is all wishful thinking, but now I have the confidence to ask. [/quote]
