[quote=Anonymous]For us the "secret" is living below our means. But that's just part of the picture. A lot more is luck, and time. I was very lucky to buy my house in 2003 in a very transitional neighborhood, that is now a "hip" neighborhood. As a result I have more than $500k in equity and a mortgage of less than $200k. Plus more than 10 years of regular retirement savings is finally turning into a sizeable sum. And finally, the big difference that has taken place in the past year was (sadly) a sizeable inheritance when one of our parents died.[/quote]
