That is really awesome OP. I had a lot more handed to me and it still felt like a huge thing (mentally? Emotionally?) when we realized our net worth independent of any outside sources was over a million. Doing it all on your own must make it extra specialS

So, I'm a millionaire. My net worth just crossed 7-digits. That may not be the same achievement it once was, but for this single mom, daughter of a school teacher and a SAHM, who worked my way through high school, college, and grad school, it feels pretty good. All the extra dollars I've been putting into Retirement, Emergency Savings, Rainy Day Savings, 529s, the choice to live in a modest but stable neighborhood over the pricier 'stretch' house so I could save more, the dinners out with friends I have skipped to save money, etc. make seeing my net worth add a comma feels awesome.

And now back to work. As one of the DCUM trolls will say any moment, $1 million isn't nearly enough. But it is something.


Awesome. Congratulations!

Yay! Good for you!

As the child of a single mother who has no money whatsoever, I think you really have accomplished something amazing.

Congrats! What an accomplishment! As you know, most Americans will never cross the 7 figure mark so don't let any haters here get you down.

Celebrate by going out to dinner with your friends. It's ok.

If you're normal, like me, it's plenty.

Congrats, OP! Way to go! We are almost there and I can't wait. It will be such a milestone.
