The bank owns the house if you still owe $180k on it.

No one is disputing that. You should probably log out.

No. The bank has a lien on the house that you own. Just like if you finance a car, or anything else. You are confusing leasing with financing.
After seeing how many people in this thread can't wrap their heads around addition and subtraction, I don't think I will bag on the Ramsey method on this board going forward. Clearly there are some lukewarm IQs that read this board.

And when you consider how unlikely that is - with the relatively higher caliber of brain - typically - on the money board, it is a little shocking how dumb and how quickly.

And therefore you cannot have equity in the house?

My wife and I just hit 100k in the last month. She just turned 25, I'm about to turn 26. I don't really feel like it is a big accomplishment because we have so much further to go.

between retirement accounts and the equity on my house, I had just about $100k networth at 30, maybe a little before
I don't know if that is an accomplishment or not. My networth doesn't pay the bills.

Person A has $100,000 in a bank with zero liabilities and rents.
Person B has $100,000 in a bank and takes $50,000 to put a down payment on a $250,000 house.
Person A has a net worth of $100,000 and person B has a net worth of negative $150,000?
That is what that flying tiger guy was saying and it seemed like you agreed right?

Every time net worth is discussed on td the stupid comes out. It's amazing how many people can't calculate it.

1x salary at 30 is good, but not necessarily outstanding.
The guidelines from Fidelity are:
1x @ 35

Up to 8 times at 65 if I remember correctly.

I feel a bit better about my situation after reading this. I'm behind either way and need to pick up the pace.

wouldn't that be wrong though? i mean, the house is worth 250k (or current estimate).
eta: this thread is all retarded up.

It's definitely wrong, that's the point.
There is a group of posters in this thread that are trying to include "Home Equity" as an asset and "Mortgage" as a liability, but Home Equity by definition has already factored in the cost of the mortgage.
You either have to (a) list the total home value as an asset and the mortgage as a liability or (b) list only Home Equity as an asset and not include the Mortgage at all (since its already included in calculating Home Equity).

I guess it is a good sign that I think that is an extremely conservative estimate?

Yes, I am hoping to be at 2.5 to 3 times at age 35.
Here is the quote from fidelity
quote:
To simplify matters, we’ve created a rule of thumb: Save at least 8 times (X) your ending salary to help increase the odds that you won’t outlive your savings during 25 years in retirement. If that multiple seems daunting, don’t fret. You don’t need to save 8X from the start. Rather, you can step up to it over your working life.
For example, by age 35, Fidelity suggests that you should have saved 1X your current salary, then 3X by 45, and 5X by 55. “Setting up clear goals linked to your salary can help simplify your planning, and help you determine if you are on track throughout your working life,” says Fidelity Executive Vice President John Sweeney. “Having such guideposts is particularly important in today’s workplace, where layoffs, job switching, longer life expectancy, and escalating health care costs can complicate your efforts to save for retirement.”
