If the stock market doesn’t crash before Christmas, December will be the month… The month where I complete the SavingNinja FIRE journey of reaching £300k and I begin venturing into uncharted territory.

Savings Report #37 - Swedish Road Trip

Another month, another slow upward climb of my finances. My pre-pension pot is growing quite nicely, almost at that special £100k figure.
