Target was $2m at age 55 (includes residence)

Done.

Now, people say that I will live another 30 yrs.


So, new decisions . . . decisions. Still looking for what to do when I grow up.

Basic answer is as much as I can. It has varied through my career. Having a family, spending and savings priorities have shifted during the different seasons of life. Right now I have all three kids in college. I don't think I have had a lot of extra cash in my checking account since I was single. My savings has done pretty well and my outside real estate investments, while at times have been a bit risky, have a tremendous amount of equity. I'm sure Dave Ramsey would not approve of my strategies to date, but I should easily achieve my goal by the time I turn 55 in 5 years.
