| Net Worth May 2008 |
So it finally happened, I am a half-millionaire! Only $2,873,495 left to save to reach my retirement goal. Funny how in one sentence I can feel so flush and then in the next feel so very poor.
This was a fairly good month for me. Luckily the car trouble I was experiencing last month turned out to be easily fixed with a simple tune-up. That was a relief to my checkbook. My online saving accounts seem to be holding steady at about 3% interest. ING Direct is still offering that $25 sign-up bonus if you are looking for a place to stash your stimulus check.
My investment accounts are a bit mixed, some are up and others are down. But overall I am making progress. |

Congrats! Most inspiring. =)

Way to go! Don't be depressed by the ongoing challenge, there are more resources to compound faster for the second half. The hardest part is the time it takes to make the first million.

Congratulations but don't lose focus...this is just a waypoint toward your ultimate goal. Keep going and good luck!!

Great Job!
Don't get hung up on how far away from your ultimate goal you are because your current standing could very well be someone else's ultimate goal.

Congrats on your milestone! I am inspired.

Excellent news Boston Gal.
My net worth increased too due to some recovery in investments. Nice to see the trend going up again. My goal this year is to hit the One Million dollar mark!
I'll need a pretty strong market to do it.
