As I’ve shared before my FAMILY FIRE goal for me and my mom is to have $2 million invested. Why that amount?
$2M allows me to withdraw. up to $80k a year to cover our expenses for the rest of our lives. I expect that to be more than enough while we’re living in Portugal.
Do I get overwhelmed thinking about this sometimes? Sure. I imagine it’s not very different from the way a parent thinks about saving for their kid’s future.
Does it light a fire under my ass that motivates me like no other goal I’ve ever set? HELL YEAH.
This goal has made me a better person. A better daughter. A better teacher. A better listener.
So no matter how overwhelmed I get, the pride and joy I feel from being able to do this for my mom is a goal that I would set over and over again.
