    I only look at my 401k once per year at the end of February to calculate my full net worth and make sure things are going to plan. It’s all in index funds so I know it should be good but no idea the specifics.

    Getting real antsy right now though.

        Just want to know. It has been almost 12 months and I’ve been contributing to it and I think it’ll be up from the market too. Purposefully not paying enough attention to even really estimate.

        Not going to change anything I do. I guess it was phrased a little oddly.

          Assuming you’re mostly in a broad US market fund, the numbers should look pretty nice from a year ago.

    In this week’s edition of celebrating random milestones:

    It took me roughly 10 months to earn last years gross salary in portfolio gains. Glad to see my portfolio earns more than I do, especially since it doesn’t have to pay taxes on that income.
