Thank you! It’s really cool because I started tracking on this platform when we got married, almost 10 years ago. Pretty wild to watch the climb!
we fell back further to somewhere around Jan 2024, and then yesterday took us back to Apr 2024, but not ticking us over the line that was first crossed May 2024.
I wish wholesale market manipulation wasn’t legal
To be fair, legality isn’t stopping them ![]()
don’t worry, it’s dropping again now, like a pingpong bouncing on the floor, and it might find the stairs soon
I suppose I meant an effective enforcement
Yeah I’m only looking for entertainment at this point. I’m channeling my inner drew carey and pretending it’s a game where everything is made up and the points don’t matter ![]()
I’m trying to figure out a reasonable way to take a bit more of 2026 money off the table, because I was focused on taxes in Dec and didn’t see the obvious solution I should have done then. I can let it ride and hope, or try to pick up on one of the smaller bounces, or just realize that loss on that bucket of money.
Got a message that a bond was maturing early so I tried to log in to deal with the proceeds and found out I’m locked out of my account for “security reasons.” So that’s now my afternoon.
and back to June 2024, so I guess I should have waited to take out that extra bit of 2026 money. But psychologically I think it was the right move, and shouldn’t hurt us by a meaningful amount.
Still not gonna calculate it. Don’t need to know, and definitely don’t want to. But I did see how much my wrok accounts are down because I went in to change my future investments to an international index (VTMGX) because we’re pretty heavily in US funds. I expect the international fund will be safer as the dollar slides. It’s not a big effect, but it’ll do a little rebalancing over time.
Numbers are back to Jul 2024, which is much better than Jan 2024, and takes into account that we pulled out more 2026 living money/renovation contingency.

my emotional support spreadsheet says we are currently (unofficially because it is not true spreadsheet day) 0.5% up YTD, even after taking out our 2026 money at a suboptimal time. (still lower than the Jan 2025 ATH)
Ath?
all time high
Is the top in?
that was a great thread
It’s still going.
It will outlive all of us.
still below all time highs, but basically even/slightly above Dec 2024 after pulling out the money we had planned to for the year (we may pull out more depending on a wide variety of factors).
irrational exuberance rears its head again.
Li’l behind the 8 ball doing the first-of-June net worth calculation, but apparently the “graph of rich people’s imaginary money” is happy? I don’t know what it’s happy about. BUT we are at an all time high of $506K, first time over the half a million mark! Not even counting equity in our house, which I don’t.
I’m planning to pay cash for our solar panels so we will go back under that mark unless there is a really serious bull market, but it’s nice while it lasts!
