DP. I am 53, and my tsp is at 1,870,000. I have contributed the max since I started in 1999, and I’ve been entirely in the C fund the entire time.

Congratulations! I crossed the 1M line a couple of years ago and it felt amazing. I worked from age 21-41 steadily and always contributed the max (occasionally got a small employer match but not always). I stepped out of the workforce (sandwich gen issue of caring for my mom and kids) when I had about $600K saved and did not contribute for the next 10 years, but the accumulation continued to grow. Market has jumped considerably this year, but I am now at $1.3M and feel very proud of myself.

My third one on at 1.8 millio


To get an employer’s match of 30k your wife should be making $350k. That is very hard for a woman !

That’s amazing PP! Can you tell us how your got there? I saw a poster on Reddit who recently posted the same and it’s inspiring to hear your savings trajectory (and would be very interested to hear how similar your paths are).
