[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the 35 year old PP with a HHI of $225k, how long did it take you to get to $1.5M? I make a little more than you, live close-in and have one kid and put away 100k a year (which includes all savings - retirement, kids college, etc.). It would take me about 15 years at my current HHI to get there - how did you manage to do it at 35? Spouse and I are in our late 20s and could definitely use some tips. [/quote] Our jobs don't require us to live close-in. I promise that you have no idea how much cheaper everything is when you're not close in, from plumbers to preschool. That's also 1.5 incomes (one is part time work at home) so childcare costs have always been minimal. We've been married 12 years, and always saved a good amount, assuming that my income would go away, but it never has. That would be my advice: pretend you only have one income. Have the other one directed to entirely separate accounts that you never see.[/quote]
