Jesus, 1-2% from 2008 to 2015. That's criminal. But glad it worked out.
Good luck with retiring in your 40s. My plan was always to retire in my early 50s and I'm ahead of where I thought I needed to be to achieve that goal, but life also changes. Our lifestyle has also "grown" over the years and you get accustomed to nicer things and the retirement number keeps getting bigger. But the bigger issue for me is the health insurance aspect of retirement. Just don't need uncertainty on that front right now.
Just fyi, I may be an old fart, but I also had toddlers in 2008, so it wasn't necessarily an easy decision to keep putting money into the market when you didn't know where bottom was, but if you did put money to work in market at that time, it was almost impossible to not make money.
