It's now 6 months since I started planning for early retirement and investing to make it happen.
In that time my portfolio has increased by £10,687 which I'm pretty happy with. If I add in my husband's investments we now have almost £108,000 of the £170,000 that I reckon we need in order to be able to retire in 4 and a half years time. (£125,000 ISAs, £37,000 DC pension and £11,000 cash).
£62,000 and counting ....

It sounds like you've made great progress in the last 6 months...congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThanks UTMT - it's surprising what a little concentrated effort can do. I just wish I;d applied myself sooner.
DeleteThat's a great increase, well done! Looks like you're well on track to hit the £62k within your time-frame - I'm with you all the way to your countdown! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks weenie. I see that you had a good August too. Roll on September :-)
DeleteThat's great progress in 6 months....well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura. I know that the markets could put a dent in it by dropping dramatically tomorrow but at least I feel as if I'm moving forward.
