Practical approach to sustainable wealth
Lets us begin this post by having a look at the following chart: The chart plots the percent change in AVI family net worth (shown in blue) in comparison to change in S&P 500 index (red). In addition, I plot the change in net worth discounting for the unprecedented growth in valuation for AVI family […]
Its again time of the month when I report net worth status for AVI family. For folks who are new to this blog, I want to quickly summarize how I report net worth and what are the key metrics that I track month-to-month. The basic Net Worth equation is: [math] \text{Net Worth} = \text{Total Asset} […]
The month of May went by in a breeze. In literal sense, we experienced almost perfect spring weather through the month of May in our region, see below. With so much sun to enjoy, it was very difficult to stay put in front of computer! As such, my plans for a follow up to my […]
Time for yet another monthly update on AVI family net worth status.

Update to the post: I started writing the post last weekend and almost a week has gone by since and what a week it has been! Some of what I say below may already be history, certainly seems to be the case with markets up 7 % for the week! With this note, here’s what […]
Back in June, I talked about flavors of FI/RE, in particular the two versions there of, coast-FI/RE and flamingo FI/RE. These flavors of FI/RE are quite similar in their core ideas, i.e., transition from the rat-race of full-time employment to financial independence and retirement, through an intermediate step of semi-retirement. The essense of this idea […]
Summer vacation for AVI family this year was unsurprisingly rather different. To avoid crowds and popular tourist destinations, AVI family decided to go camping instead. To further minimize contact, we thought it was a smart idea to avoid a weekend getaway. Mr AVI took advantage of one of the few perks of a salaried man, […]
The past week was extremely busy for AVI family. Mrs AVI took keen interest in painting the younger AVI kiddo room and the only contribution from Mr AVI, remove cover panels from electric outlets! Before you think how insensitive, Mr AVI was busy as well and doing the stuff that most Americans supposedly hate, filing […]
