That's women for you. They feel the need to spend whatever is in the checking account. Oh the bills will be paid but there won't ever be much extra eAch month. They will find ways to keep spending. Plenty are bad about paying themselves first. It is what it is. Lol.

The amount my chick spends is shocking.
She comes from money and that is a bit concerning for me.
Nails here, hair there. Money just vanishes like a fart in the wind.

$35,000 liquid savings
$80,000 in investments
No debt

There are some of us ladies that are more financially savy. I was the one that kept our savings on track, managed rental properties and kept our spending to a minimum. Both of my daughters are like minded. Youngest graduated from LSU just over a year ago with a degree in engineering and is well on her way to meeting the goals many of you mentioned. She's getting married this year and her wedding will be simple and small (less than 20 people). More money for a house.
One other thing-take very good care of your marriage. Ex and I divorced after 30 years very amicably but when you have worked so hard to make your goals, it is absolutely horrible to see it cut in half. Also, we were not high earners but had a net worth of over 1 million in our early 40s. Started saving early and saved as much as we could.
Glad to see so many young people with good heads on their shoulders!
