My income puts me way down the list but there is nothing in this chart to figure what I really have. You see, I don’t owe any one a single red cent. My wife and I own our house and the 640 acres it sits on. We have paid in full assets that can be liquidated should we need extra cash. The monthly income without having to make payments lets us live far better than we did when I was working.

Me, too. I don’t fit neatly on that chart, either. Hard assets are the way to go, Baby. As debt free as I can be, all things considered. Just owe a bit on my farm still, but I’m doubling down on that right now. I’m 52. A Dave Ramsey fan, too.

I DO produce taxable income, but that’s a small percentage of what I’m actually ‘worth.’

(And yes, I am currently considering any serious Freeper marriage proposals. Laz doesn’t count, LOL!)

I’m in the same boat. I am retired but own my home, both car and truck, small airplane, have a nice IRA that I don’t need to draw on by the way, and live in a tax friendly state for retirees. The chart would say I am not very high on the totem pole but I feel I am living large.
