Congrats!
Go out and do nothing for the rest of us.

Congrats man, that is outstanding!
I'm working for my son now. I could retire - not as comfortably as I'd like, but I want him to be able to escape the school system without debt. When I went to college, UCLA cost $1,240 a year. Now it's sixteen times that. Add in cost of living, and he could be another Sisyphus pushing a six-figure debt boulder up the hill.

I have two daughters as well and my legacy plan has an eighty percent likelihood of leaving more to them even after adjusting for inflation than what I'll have at the beginning of retirement.
It was that simulation that eventually settled me down. In our case it's a little more than double, but I realized while reading this that we never accounted for our property's value. Which, over that period, is going to be ludicrous. Those kids are going to be set for life, though they could very well be retirement age when it happens
