Yes – the payment is nearly 1/3!!!! I plan to do a future post on this, but it is spectacular!

Martin,

Thanks – our goal is 50%, so it was a little low for this month. My wife should be starting her part-time job soon down here in Georgia. I plan to write a future post about it soon 🙂 We’ll see where our savings rate shakes out once we get into our groove. Honestly, her going part-time was non-negotiable I was told 🙂

Congrats on all the goals accomplished. Im sure you are happy to owe half in mortgage debt compared to virginia home. Good Luck in the new job.

That’s quite nice report. You have a great savings rate. Do you think you will be able to maintain it with just one salary or is your wife looking for a new job or was that task you accomplished helping her to find a job actually solving the problem?

Thanks Myles. Yes, side hustles will really help once I can get a bit more consistency to mine 🙂

Look at all those ups and downs! That’s exactly why we all need side-hustles, emergency funds and a plan for the long-term. It’s really great to see it all in action and the graphs give a great picture of your progress. Thanks.

Flash Boys is a great read too… enjoy!
