[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As of today Personal Capital shows my net worth excluding home equity to be $5,022,088.  Including home equity, it's $5,823,724.  I, too, was in Biglaw.  Retired 5 years ago in my early 50s.[/quote]

OP here.  what was your net worth when you retired?  did you find that after you hit your first million the others came faster?  I hear this often. [/quote]

My net worth then was about $4 million.  Yes, the numbers jumped pretty quickly.  In 2008 after the market crash I probably was at barely a million.  My net worth went up $1 million this year alone, and I'm not even working!  Life is pretty good.[/quote]

How did you make that last $1m this year!? A 25% return in your net worth is pretty incredible, especially in retirement! [/quote]

I'm curious too. I would guess 3.5MM in equities/S&P500 returning 29%, with 500K in some "safe" combination as a cushion and to live on. I wish I had the risk tolerance for that kind of aggressive investing in retirement!

Big Law, please let us know![/quote]
