Notes:
Paid a big tax bill for what was still owed for 2020 taxes (~$30k) this month, and also paid for IVF (~$20k). So a big expense month, which cut into our cash savings significantly. I'm expecting expenses to normalize starting next month, because we have mostly stopped paying for home renovations (except for a few more things) but also wife stopped working, so monthly take home pay will be about $12k less too.

It feels weird crossing over the $1MM mark this month. We've had a very significant increase in "net worth" this past year due to real estate appreciation. I am valuing our house and our two rental properties based on Zillow, but to be honest I think if we were to list them today, we could probably get an extra $200k out of all of the properties combined, at least. On the other hand, if/when the economic house of cards collapses, these paper gains will go away. So, I'm not really sure how to feel. On the one hand I feel like we made it over the threshold based on a conservative estimate of today's market values, but on the other hand, I feel like it could go away in an instant if the economy takes a turn south.

In my last comment, I forgot to take into account that we had not yet paid 2020 income taxes. So, I jumped the gun a little bit.
