today I am the richest I have ever been. My house is $13k from being paid off. No CC debt. No car debt. No other debt. No dependants. Renters paying me $$. Months away from my Masters Degree.
I'm pretty much in the same boat as you minus the masters degree and what I owe on the house. I owe a bit less then $250K but should have that paid off in 4 years or 6 years if I buy another rental property.
I am retired so it is highly likely that I am as rich as I will get. I don't play the lottery, have no one to inherit money from, so unless the stock market does a lot better, this is it.
Today. $4.5 million not including house with no debt at all. But I want more. Flying first class and staying at the Four Season's takes a lot of dough!
I'm actually very lucky* that the answer is, "every day is the top and it's currently growing". Freakin' miracle, after struggle in my 20s.
*solid investments in an equities market that may or may not be in a bubble, a crazed real estate market (Seattle) investment that is going stratospheric, the good luck to be born smart/w. highly-educated parents/in the West, good education and career choices.
I really am pleased. We'll see if it lasts; life has made it pretty clear that nothing gold (so to speak) can stay.
Right now. Have around $200K equity in house, $250K in 401k, around $50K in cash and banking around $6K a month.
It's amazing how much your position can change within a few years. Getting married really had a big impact on me, we both made decent money and suddenly with marriage and moving in together it was like everything doubled.
