[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]64 and 66 and north of $50 million. When we got married 38 years ago it took everything we had to scrape together a $10,000 down payment on a house including skipping an engagement ring. I worked full time for 18-20 years and did pretty well but my husband did very well and we always saved a lot and invested smartly. FWIW when we were 35 our net worth might have been $500,000 (half from home appreciation) and $2 million at 45. My husband’s income really grew from age 45 until he retired at 62 and the stock market has been our friend for the last ten years though we have always been investors. [/quote]

Ok, he has to have been in something really lucrative that most people are not doing. This isn't because you are savvy investors, come on.[/quote]

PP - yes, my husband twice invested in and ran leveraged buy-outs that were very risky on paper but he is really smart and I never worried about the risk because he would never risk what we couldn't afford to lose. But, regardless, we always were good savers and investors just doing the basics. [/quote]
