[quote=Anonymous]Totally understand, OP -- You get in the habit of saving and seeing that money accumulate, then you hit your goal and you almost don't want to spend it, even for the thing you were saving to buy! I'm 48 and we have a little over $1M invested with zero debt (paid off the house). It's taken 15 years to get here. One not-really-secret is that you start to see results a lot faster once you hit a certain critical mass in invested assets. After about $500K, I noticed that market swings REALLY had an impact on our bottom line. We could make (or shed) $10,000+ in a single day. But, short of inheriting or winning the lottery (DON'T PLAY THE LOTTERY) slow and steady is the only way to go. Don't worry, you'll get there. [/quote]
