[quote=AN]Is it me saying I literally know RN couple who saved up $1.5M after 15 years or is it me saying this hypothetical couple can save up $1.5M after 15 years. Read it how you like it. But your literal meter is working at tip top shape, so you know the answer to that one already.[/quote]Literal meter says you don’t know this couple.

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=AN]Then again, asking you to read beyond the literal is just asking for way too much.[/quote]I think my literalness detectors work pretty well, thank you very much. Unfortunately for you, so do my BS detectors.

Tell me, your hypothetical regarding the $150K couple saving four grand a month and amassing $1.5 million after 15 years based on 8% annual return, was that literal?

It certainly wasn’t typical and it certainly wasn’t realistic, but even more importantly, it wasn’t even accurate. It did seem quite literal though.

[quote=AN]I never asked you about how the world works, but you seem to love to lecture to people how you think the world work, although you know nothing about them.[/quote]You funny AN. You may not realize it, but you come across as you’re the one who knows it all. Heck, you even know what’s going to happen with your house in the future.

And, of course, when it suits you, you quickly revert to the young guy who couldn’t be expected to know.
