I don’t have anyone to share this moment with except for my boyfriend. Yesterday I hit 1M net worth, all liquid, after just under 6 years working in tech. I left college with 15k and saved pretty aggressively as soon as I started my first job. Prioritized tax advantage accounts (back door Roth, megabackdoor Roth, traditional 401k, hsa). But also focused on enjoying my life in the moment; spending quality time with loved ones, taking many vacations, deep conversations. I have been feeling the happiest I have in my entire life in the 2 years building up to this moment. I grew up with depression, money was held over my head and my only dream was to escape. I never had any dreams other than to get out. Over the years my fear turned into a fear of losing my job and returning to a situation like that. Then that fear melted away. These fears were all despite being with a boyfriend who is nothing but supportive and loving. Who supports me through extreme personal loss. Gradually this fear melted away. Now I am beginning to have dreams for the first time in my life. Feeling such a deep euphoric feeling when I experience the beauty of nature and feel the love from those around me. I’ve never found myself crying from joy like this before. These feelings of happiness bring me so much more meaning and true happiness than money could ever. But for me, achieving this financial goal was a key part of my journey. It helped me feel safe enough, for the first time in my life, so I could let go and experience the feelings of happiness.
