do you consider a house retirement savings? we will downsize in 25 years, and sell our house for a condo. we just bought so i assume we will make at least 500K in this. can we assume...
(more)
this is 500K of retirement savings if we will fully own the house by thtat time? i am posting this b/c there were all these posts of people having 100Ks of retirement savings in their thirties. we have 60K in 401Ks, but own 60% of our house and will have paid off the 40% when we sell to downsize.
