[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Educator millionaire here who expects to have around 4 mil and retire at 55 with a pension-- you have to play your cards/and also be very lucky to get here--- not having student loans, having knowledge of and participating in early investing, living in a state that pays well for educators, not having the double windfall provision take away social security, marrying a like minded spouse, not having significant medical issues or kids with major disabilities. So, yes, I agree with the pp that the million mark is doable for some teachers, but the 5 million plus mark is unlikely for most unless married to a higher earning spouse. Whereas doctors can much more easily obtain the 5 million plus mark if they don't blow their money or aren't in a low paid specialty [/quote] If you started teaching at 25, with the typical teachers salaries even in high paying states (with high COL), pray tell how did you rack up 4 mill in 30 years? [/quote] I'm including our family savings. My husband earns a similar salary to me[/quote] Everyone screamed 'Apple' when Iphone came out. Only a few bought the stock. Same with the Amazon. Everyone's shopping and nobody buying the stock. Now, we have new amazon and apple and we still have people asking how to invest. [/quote]
