Wow, what an inspirational read. I love articles like this because they are a great reminder that if you are willing to take charge of your finances and make done changes (and sometimes sacrifices), great things are definitely possible! Huge congrats to you!

 

Thanks I appreciate it! Fortunately, with everyones help I have gotten about 20k views on this article over the weekend, and over 600 FB likes and 500 shares. I also, had a local newspaper contact me about an interview, so I really can't thank everyone enough for all of the support.

Wow! Congrats bro!

I've always felt net worth is one of the most important indicators of one's financial health, asset valuation fluctuations can have a dramatic impact though.

 

Incredible story! Congrats Justin!

 

Thanks, I appreciate it!  I couldn't agree more on asset valuation...I do include home equity as part of my net worth, but the value has always remained at the appraisal price from the purchase of the home. I am certain the price has increased significantly, but I also don't ever plan on selling the house, so I just consider the paid in equity as part of the net worth.

This is really incredible. I'm on a similar journey and would love to see you throw some traffic my way on twitter. I just tweeted out your article to my very limited amount of followers. Thanks for sharing, another real life story of someone who has achieved what I'm striving for. Laugh

 

I read a few articles on your site, they intrigued me. I'd love to learn more about reskinning apps! Wondering if that is something I could make extra money on...perhaps we can collaborate sometime! In the meantime, if you want to put a guest post up on my site I have a precent decent following that loves hearing about making money!

I think I may go with showing my monthly, or quarterly, net worth going forward as I can easily view that on my Mint app and copy screenshots. I had to go back through old files to figure out my rough net worth from 4 years ago, so documenting the exact growth could be a little more cumbersome.

I have to format it a little better tomorrow and the links are "no-follow" right now and I don't know why. I'll fix that tomorrow. My wife is DEMANDING that I get off the computer and go to bed, ha. Fix all of that stuff tomorrow.
