Haha, love the “arrival date” action you got going – welcome aboard! I know people say a million isn’t really a million, etc etc, but you gotta hit it first before you can make more It’s not like we’ll stop at $1Mil anyways – it’s just the hardest to reach at first.

@Don at MoneyReasons.com

Don,
Thanks for taking the pledge with me. It sure is nice to have a pledge buddy.

@MoneyHoneySF
I am not entirely sure about that. Right now, I do not believe I will have employees under me rather I am looking for something I can start on the side and work on in my spare time.

I was over at Don’s sight earlier and came across his pledge. He has an aggresive goal as well with $30k-$40k of savings/year. Now that seems approachable since he mentioned above that his mortgage will be paid in full.

As for you Jane, great goals to have. You’re only 26 and have a vision to be a millionaire even before many of your peers is awesome. I believe I started a bit earlier than you around 22 having the same vision. I bought my first house at 26 in California. Which was a few years ago. But nonetheless, Im happy you are mapping our your goals in your mid 20s. And yes, keeping up with the Joneses (your cousins) in this case if tempting, but I’m sure they are not as financial savvy or have an awareness about money like you. You’ll probably ahead of them as time goes by in the money dept.

Good luck with your goals to become a millionaire. Btw, when you speak of starting a business, will you have workers under you?

Thoughtful job with your list!

Hmmm, looking over my pledge… it’s pretty much what I’m going currently. I guess I’m just staying the course!

The money being socked away will increase to $30,000 or $40,000 a year because my house will be paid off this month…

This was a great idea you had!

@Kate
No retirement at 44. If a million isn’t what it used to be, then what do you think I should aim for?

@InvestingNewbie,
No, I am not planning to retire at 44. I wanted a doable goal to work towards.

@Kasey at Thrify Little Blog
I am glad that you noticed that. I did not specify whether the million was going to be a million in cash or networth. Right now, I am aiming for networth.

I am really having difficulty forumulating a good solid plan because I have no idea what I will earn since I haven’t yet gotten my first job. Right now, I am guessing conservatively.

The first thing I though when I read the post title was, “What is a millionaire?” Really, do you want a million in cash or net worth. I think it’s a great goal for 44, but I’d set my aims higher if I were you!

PS All of those sub-goals look great!

That’s great that you’re joining the club. Like Kate said, a million isn’t what it used to be. But as long as you aren’t planning to retire once you hit the 1M mark, I think you’re good.

That said, I’m actually joining the Billionaire’s Club with the same goals as you. LOL!

This is a great idea and I love the idea of developing multiple revenue streams. Unfortunately, I don’t think a million is what it used to be, but it doesn’t sound like it’s your plan to retire on it either (unless you’re planning to retire at 44?). I love that you’re committed to giving back too. Good luck with reaching your goal!
