[quote=sdcellar]The part that’s not accurate is the $1.5 million figure. If you round up, it’s $1.4 ($1,393,380.57 to be fairly precise). Precision and accuracy are two different things, but I digress (and doubt you’re aware of the distinction anyway).
But, I don’t even care about that!
What’s not typical or realistic is the notion that this $150K couple socks away $4k every month. For 15 straight years, no less! And doesn’t touch a penny of it!
And what about that annual return? 8%? That’s awesome! And pretty hard to come by, I think. Year in, year out, just fantastic.
But, hey, maybe it’s just me.[/quote]
Totally agree with you! Of course this couple doesn’t have kids for 15 years either. Or take vacations, buy cars.
