Going, going... SOLD!

The gong crashes. The gavel lands with a resounding thud.

I am *almost* debt-free.



The buyer exercised her option to purchase my condo this morning. The expected end of the conveyancing period is three months from now or 4 September 2018. Ah, the day on which I should finally recover my long last funds, which have been trapped in the investment wilderness that is real estate for four long winters. A birthday gift in advance.

Having zero debt is indeed liberating.

Having $1M in investible assets while having no debt - even better.

By the Holy Gospel that is my FUMS, my short-term financial goal is to accumulate a 1.1M portfolio by January 2019.  If things go according to plan, I should generate 75 - 80k in annual income from this portfolio.  But you know what they say, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.

It is of course theoretically possible for one to stop working completely with a 6.5k per month passive income.

But because my retirement has to be both glorious and luxurious, I will slog a few more years.  Build the buffer. Reap the dividends.

Onward to FI my brethren!
