Save 75% of my post-tax income! Same as last year. Like 10% of this savings will be in a 401k so I can hit my employer match, the rest in a passively managed index fund (ie wealth front).

As an addendum to this: find a consistent source of side income to make meeting this goal more easy, though at the moment it's actually not been super painful.

Q1 (ish, ok, I jumped the gun): I have saved a total of ~80% of my income so far this year, pre-tax. Gonna try to add some side income now that I've learned some programming, which hopefully will speed that rate up. Adding income seems to be an important way to make that number grow, and doing so with a business (software) with very low costs seems like a good idea.
