Kinda. I wish I was doing more to be honest. I’ve always been overly ambitious so I thought I’d have like 3 businesses and my own house and my dream car. I’m working on it though.
I really do I have accomplished most of the academic goals I wanted to reach and physically I am finally getting into the shape I wanted by all the exercise so I would say everything is going just fine
Surprisingly the pandemic didn't delay my financial strategy, it increased it heavily. But it affected me mentally and I started feeling stressed/overwhelmed. I started shopping a lot to cope. Bad idea 🙈 In regards to your dad, I’m truly sorry for your loss and I believe he’s looking down at you hoping for the best as well
Good! It delayed mine because the courts pretty much shut down for civil cases, which are 95% + of my business. We still did depositions, but my gross was about 40% in 2020 of what it was in 2019. By mid-2021 it was back to normal.
Not even close. I figured I'd be married and working a 9 to 5 job at this point. Instead I'm single, retired and enjoying life. Well at least I got the "enjoying life" right.😆
Eh yes and no. I've only been for 2 years. It wasn't really planned. I always intended to retire at 60. And I'm not saying it's permanent. It's just kind of situational. Also when you've worked your entire life you need to fill 8 hrs. A day. So I guess I'm saying I'm still trying to adjust. I know these are high maintenence problems.😆
I don't think I am really fit to answer this question, but what the heck I will still answer😅😅. I have never planned ahead about where I want to see myself, cause I learnt early in my life that we make plans and life finds a way to "duck" them up. (If you know what I mean). But being honest even if I made plans I would no "ducking" way have thought that I would be where I am right now.

Yea i hate being ambitious. Sims 3 taught me how much of a problem that trait would become when you dont get what you want lol
I really do I have accomplished most of the academic goals I wanted to reach and physically I am finally getting into the shape I wanted by all the exercise so I would say everything is going just fine
So happy to hear that
Thank you for saying that 😃
I'm still alive.
I wasn't thinking that'd be the case.
Im glad you are
Aww.
Thanks.
My 5 year plan is relatively on track. 10 year is under some modification.
Haha i hear ya
Nope but almost.
I'm "a few 'pennies' shy" of my target net worth.
Oooh good luck
Much better than I expected. I have been blessed with all that I have.
Happy for you
Thank you. Hope you get there soon.
Five years ago I was not expecting the Pandemic to delay my financial strategies, but otherwise yes
Ten years ago: No. My dad's passing in 2014 was the impetus for my current strategy.

Dang i bet that freaked you out for a bit. My big drop hit this year. All i can do is keep praying and search for a new path back to success
I can't really answer that because I never really knew where I wanted to be. I can say that I'm more or less in a good place though.
Dang whats taking so long to figure it out lol
I wish I had that answer lol
No, I'm far better off than I thought I'd be.. I originally thought I'd die alone.
Im glad you found someone
You and me both. She says she is the lucky one, and I feel like I'm the lucky one.
Thats even better when its a mutual feeling
agreed!!
No. Everytime I get close, something happens. I've started over multiple times but keep going for my goals. I feel like Sisyphus at times.
I gotta google sisyphus
Completely not. I thought I would be married with kids not single and staying in a friend's basement.
I’m sorry it didn't happen for you.
Career and family wise, yes I am where I thought I'd be. Money and house, I thought I'd have more money and living in a bigger house in another state.
What state
I'd like to move to Virginia but my wife doesn't want to move
Not even close. I figured I'd be married and working a 9 to 5 job at this point. Instead I'm single, retired and enjoying life. Well at least I got the "enjoying life" right.😆
And being retired is good too right
Eh yes and no. I've only been for 2 years. It wasn't really planned. I always intended to retire at 60. And I'm not saying it's permanent. It's just kind of situational. Also when you've worked your entire life you need to fill 8 hrs. A day. So I guess I'm saying I'm still trying to adjust.
I know these are high maintenence problems.😆
I’d sleep those 8 hours 🤣
I thought I might be gone by now but im still here.. smiles
*smiles*
I would say yes at this point I'm where I want to be. I retired and the savings and the pension that I acquired I'm comfortable in my life.
Thats great
I would say yes. Don't get me wrong I have had my mistakes over the years and because it didn't kill me it only made me stronger
Oh well if thats how it works then yea i’m improving too 🤣
Am trying to go forward and forget about past live moments 😀
I hear ya
Lol no. But surprisingly I’m happy where I am right now and I’m also happy that I’m not where I wished to be years ago.
Thats a new perspective. I like
I don't think I am really fit to answer this question, but what the heck I will still answer😅😅.

Soooo true
no I'm mot nearly where I thought I would be but that won't stop me from getting there.
Yes! Thats the spirit
