The past 10 years was wonderful. I managed to increase my family's net worth by 7 times from $300k to $2.1m. I successfully invested and divested in a few properties and make profits of $1.5m. Today, we own 3 beautiful virgin condos (not those old, haggard looking condos in D9, 10). I plan to retire next year when I reach 50, with a passive income of $6k a month. Plan to sell the car and stop having a domestic helper. Estimated that my monthly household expenses will be about $5k a month. Life is great!
