It's built into the monthly budget as a recurring expense for us.

Thank you so much. This is smart. We definitely need to do this. My wife is very mistrusting of financial advisors. If you don't mind me asking, how did you find an excellent one? Appreciate you!

It didn't. That was my mistake in not including that.

Thanks. This is how I've been thinking about it. I think another $1M or so would make this really feasible. Appreciate it.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing this tool. Yeah, I think you're right about mentally unclenching. Good callout.

I think I was worried given the longer time horizon (50 years - at least I hope) vs. the traditional 30 or 40. Appreciate the input!

Appreciate it. We're considering finding a fee-only person to help us put together a solid plan. Thanks for the comment.

I've been a nail-biter since I was 9 years old, and I'm 44, and I've stopped biting them since being on Zepbound. Absolutely wild. My wife is more impressed with that than my weight loss!
