Goal: Liquid net worth of $1,000,000
Posted by Ed Mamula under Narratives , Net worth updates , ObjectivesAfter I read Steve Pavlina’s article 5 Wealth Lessons From 20 Percent of a Millionaire , I decided to conduct a race to a $1,000,000 liquid net worth with Steve.
Steve’s site is phenomenal, and he has a big lead on me in both net worth and monthly income. Perhaps my only advantage in this race is that Steve doesn’t know he’s participating in it.
It’s fun for me to state the goal this way, because I’m sure Steve will make it to a million, and I’m sure that I will too.
My approximate liquid net worth at the end of January 2007 is…drum roll please….$74,000
It’s on, Steve! I’d use a tortoise/hare analogy here, but I’m not sure which one of us is which. I also want to say that I’ve been hurting my chances of winning the race by buying products that Steve endorses. and lining his wife’s pockets by booking intuitive readings! That’s like running for class president and voting for the other guy.

I’ll be cheering you on!

Oh boy, now I know I’m the tortoise. My only chance is if Steve falls asleep under a tree for a couple of years.

Hey Ed, it’s a big challenge you’ve set there but you’ve already attained 7.4% of your goal and that’s a great achievement to many, myself included.
Do remember to post your results and I’ll be cheering you on the sides with my full support. All the best!

Thanks Ellesse! The total has already improved to $75,300…my first “mini-goal” of $100,000 liquid net worth is in sight!
