Hey, very cool – just checked it out! It’s fun to put it all out there, right?? Definitely holds you more accountable too knowing that people will be watching and judging ;) Looks like we’re both stay at home parents with 3 kids too!

I just started my blog about my path to FIRE and it was a net worth monthly update as well.

I look forward to reading your updates and seeing where your financial journey takes you!

hmm… I don’t think I have any in-depth posts around it, I just basically funded each of the 529s with a few thousand dollars when each kid was born, and then I set up automatic $50/mo investments into each one going forward after that. As well as dumping any extra bday or xmas gift $$$ they get into it as well over the years.

each one is invested into index funds that I just set up once, and then promptly forgot about and now just keep adding to :) I haven’t calculated how much each account will probably amass over the next 12-18 years, but I’m assuming that some of the kids will get scholarships of some nature, and by then my own $$$ will be larger too so it should be a-okay come college-time. But I should probably be better about checking things as the years go by, haha…

Also feel like better financial goals would motivate me towards being more proactive with investments etc instead of letting money sleep

Good for you!!! Your money will forever be changed! :)

Rock on!

We’re 38 and 36 now. Started back when I was around 28 – so about 10 years :)
