Solid 6 Month

I always feel like we could be doing more to reach our goal of early retirement, but am very thankful for all of our blessings. I'm also thankful for my parents for being such great personal finance role models.

We've been working hard to increase the contributions to our retirement accounts and have done a good job over the past 6 months. Our average monthly contribution since May has been $1,453.

Here's a month-by-month breakdown:
May

$1,025.19

June
$1,675.19

July
$1,743.52

August
$1,181.48

September
$1,592.71

October
~$1,500.00

Dude, that is incredible! I know what it's like to want to do
more and more and push yourself to the brink, but keep on being proud of yourself :) there's always *something* you could be doing more of, but we're not Superman....yet.
