Similar. Started as soon as I started working, when my income roughly tripled from my grad school stipend. I figured I should get in the habit when it was relatively unnoticeable. I've been a TSP millionaire for several years now.

$250k, but did it at lower amounts ($180-200). But it’s much easier now than then because kids are in college or almost launched.

$165K but have been maxing out since I made $75K. So about 15 years now of max-out with about 18 to go.

I started maxing retirement contributions when I was 26 and earning $32.5k (Roth and 403b). Kept that going and got DH on the bandwagon when we married at 30/31. We are now 40/41 and max out IRAs, 401k and TSP with HHI of $250k. We are in solid shape for retirement by 55.
