My wife and I are 50. Our net worth is $3M even though we never made more than $150k in a year. We have 3 in college that have no loans. You are terrible at saving.
What is the value of your home and did you have car payments in your 30s and 40s?
I’m 40 and have had an income around 165k for the last 5 years. I think I will be lucky to have a net worth of 800k by 50. And that is with my wife going back to work when our youngest starts school in 2 years. She will probably only make about 40-50k but we’ll save it all if we can.
