After 2 weeks of trading, was wondering how I was doing vs S&P500. So far so good. 3% return in 2 weeks. Better than leaving money in savings account/Tbill/FD.
My aim for 2026 is to get the same capital gain as 2025 (easier because capital is now larger, so % needed is less)

I admire all these young folks having 2.13m networth at such a young age.

When I was 30 years old, I had 0 in my bank Account.

How times have changed.

I personally feel its not where you start but how you end :cool: .

A lot of FIRE enthusiasts are limiting their earning runaway by wanting to FIRE at 40, though the above blogger with 2.13m in his late 30s, should have no problem FIRE with 3m in his 40s if he wants to.

I think 50s is a better time, gives you 10 more years of earning to build up your funds.

By taking it easier rather than rushing FIRE, you can also take care of your health and maintain fitness better.

Times are indeed different now.

I probably had less than $5k in my bank account when I was 30, as I was working for the past 5 years in a $1.4k job.

If its any consolation, my networth did not grow appreciably until I hit my mid 30s, my NW was negligible for much of my life. I think there will always be a few opportunities in life, be it career, markets and whatnot. The key is to roll the dice when such opportunities arise, a risky career switch and going all in on the S&P 15 years ago changed my life, this can happen to anyone.

Same here. I started looking more closely at my CPF recently.

If there is a correction this year, CPF will form the bulk of the warchest I plan to deploy....
I find CPF to be an interesting financial instrument to use at age 55, besides for property. One can toggle between various CPF strategies, including Amundi funds, CPF cash refunds, and ERS.
