2million's Personal Finance Blog

My Journey to Financial Freedom


August 29, 2005

Welcome to 2million!

This is my 1st post. I am starting this blog to track my thoughts, musings, and progress as I focus on my primary goal: A net worth of 2 million dollars + my primary residence. What I mean is my goal is a net worth of 2 million dollars plus the value of my primary residence (so if my home is worth $500k then my goal is a net worth of $2.5 million). I think it is important to distinguish because having the home paid off if not part of the goal. I will further break down this goal in future posts.
