Not a dumb thought at all. The only problem with counting home equity as an asset is that it only matters if you are borrowing against it or selling the house.

I know I won't get any honest answers but what x(salary) do folks actually have?
I'm 34 and have a combined 1.61x yet that puts us well ahead of "projected income at 65" and almost at that projected # for 55. So what gives? I think the x(salary) is because right now I'm way behind that curve and by the time I retire we'll be well ahead of that curve.
Eta: I'm strictly speaking of our current combined. Starting salaries we're over 3x.
