Alright, so, it’s the 7th. Normally I hop right to doing the net worth update on the 1st, sometimes the 2nd if I’m busy. But we are 9 weeks into 2026 and my job has managed to upset or piss me off each and every week of the year so far, so I’m feeling pretty burnt out about most things lately, including this blog. On the plus side, it means I’m not watching the market hardly at all, which is probably healthy for me. But it’s not great, overall, so forgive me if the pace and content here suffers for a bit.

| Invested Assets | $1,389,294 | +1% |
We finally crossed over $1.8MM net worth, which is exciting and continues us on our way to the $2MM milestone I’ve been looking forward to. The gains on house and retirement obvious made up for the rest of the declines, and we’re within spitting distance of $1.4MM in invested assets, which is only noteworthy if you have a tab in your spreadsheet tracking the amount of time between $100k months for both net worth and invested assets (🤳).
With this update, I also realized that I hadn’t updated the cells in my spreadsheet that tracks our percentage progress to FI/RE/do-it-now-RE. We’re 60% to our RE number, but more excitingly, 50% of the way to FI and 29% to do-it-now. And that’s with us taking the foot off the gas and paying less attention to our finances in general.
