Hopefully this isn't poorly received, as I feel like I've seen net worth figures well above and below mine. But feel free to fire away! Primarily interested in gauging current position given desire to start family in nyc long-term (or at least have the option to do so. I'm still just a guy with a girlfriend at this point).
Up to 360k in net worth and I'm 28.5 years old to be exact lol. Here's the breakout:
- $220k in brokerage
- $125k in 401k or Roth IRA
- $10k in crypto
- $5k in cash
Have worked for 6 years and grown annual earnings from $70k to 140k. Think I can reasonably raise that to 160k by start of 2025 and go from there. NYC is ofc a HCOL.
Feel like I'm in a solid position, but probably need to girlfriend (or future wife) to basically match what I'm doing if I want to stay in the city long-term. Otherwise, would still be great to have a double-income to take elsewhere to a MCOL (or just less than NY).
28 y.o. guy in NYC check in

Definitely in a very solid position for 28, if you keep down this path you’ll be able to retire early with a couple million if you choose
