Wins & Fails

August 9th, 2020 at 03:54 pm

The Universe laughed so hard at me last last week. So so hard. 😞

{Yes, it's taken me a week to even finish this post. So I was talking about last week, but now that is last last week}.

I initially titled this blog post "fail". Because not really sure where to begin but it just felt like a big fail.

But... Our assets did top $1 Mil. I had kind of given up for this year. In fact, was surprised how much the stock market went up after we hit this goal several days ago. So I get to even enjoy this for more than just one day. 😁

But... It took us 10 years to get back to a $500k+ net worth after hitting it the first time. So while it's nice, I don't really have any huge expectations at this point. $1 Mil is a cool milestone, but I don't expect to stay there given the current economic outlook.

& so it continues... My work life is generally impossible, and everyone around me is dealing with a lot. But... Everything money is going well. That pretty much sums up the last few years, and so it continues.

    It's a good milestone and I agree, I can see some ups and downs as far as the markets so I imagines our investments will hit a few road bumps.

    I feel the same regarding the stock market. I am enjoying the ride, but also expecting a big tumble at some point. I keep inching up towards a $1 million net worth. I will enjoy it for however long it lasts.
