I'm debt-free - I'm fully funding my 401(k) and my ROTH IRA, I have a balanced budget and a 1 month buffer of income plus and emergency fund, now I'm setting aside cash for vacations!

Mad Wack posted:one year later and now it's up 66%  another year, and things are chugging along nicely up 62% - we got a much bigger than expected tax bill after we married but luckily we had a big emergency fund to absorb it, also we were able to save for our wedding so we didn't go into debt but still had the wedding we wanted, of course all of this is somewhat muted by the market taking a huge dump too but we're 30 & 35 years from retirement respectively, so whatever.
