From nothing to half a million in 10 years, what a great example of the opportunities available in this country. Of course it takes determination, smart decisions, and hard work but its nice to know the sky's the limit. Congrats Sun!

He is really into it - I'm very proud of him for his efforts. I'm 36, and we're doing OK for our age, but this kid is earning a great salary (I used to work with him and did payroll) and he's actively investing. Now if I can just get him to take me to Hong Kong! I have a Chinese friend, maybe 24, that has just started investing. He is really into it – I’m very proud of him for his efforts.

Especially, since you do not include your house, which I agree with not doing. All the best for a much shorter time for the next 1/2 million. Sun,

Congratulations on crossing the 1/2 million milestone. Especially, since you do not include your house, which I agree with not doing.

All the best for a much shorter time for the next 1/2 million.

Including them will likely to inflate the number, so I just don't consider them in both assets and liabilities. What you see is the number from all our investments: cash, stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc. No I don’t include any thing related to house and car when I do the calculation because, as you said, I have no idea how much our house and cars are worth right now.
