First off, the pay for a tenured mail carrier is plenty for me, and I feel like I have a full life.

I take martial arts classes, yoga classes, have nice apartment, eat what I want, have a decent car, etc.

I really don’t want anything, except ridiculous things no one can afford, like sure I’d be up for buying a Cathedral and converting it to a $20m house.

Liquid 3 years (savings plus liquid investments). 2 years in IRA. Set to inherit somewhere between 20-40 years worth.

I just have to work to make ends meet, let my investments mature, and eventually inherit.

It feels weird because I love my parents, but it’s something to plan around nonetheless.
