[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our NW is ~$5M. Of that, about $2M is in home equity...the rest in other assets (stock, real estate, etc). We will also almost certainly inherit $5M+. We are 43 y.o., with large 529s for our kids. I don't worry about either of us losing our job, though this is partially also because we both have highly in-demand skills and shouldn't have difficulty finding ways to earn money...even if at a lesser HHI. I reached this comfort a couple of years (and ~$1M) ago. DH came to this conclusion this year.[/quote] NP - I could have written this! However, I get the sick feeling in my stomach to think about losing my job. Part of my identity is there, my security. I'm similar to the the guy with the 25M mark that keeps moving (except with a lot less). DH is more comfortable with money than me. I don't have an extravagant lifestyle, but I worry about an expensive emergency. Healthcare can bankrupt anyone in this country.[/quote]
