Dave would have a hay day with me. I did just sell my 2003 Mustang Cobra that I had around 45k invested to better my financial position. I think that is a great start. I only got 23.5k (yikes) out of it and with the money I made I unloaded a jeep grand cherokee that I leased for my wife and put down a nice down payment on honda accord for her (15k to go). She is pregnant and I dont want her and my baby rolling around in a beater.

This baby thing has really woke me up about money. I often wonder if I have enough saved at this point in my life. As you can see by my previous posts I really dont have anyone to ask financial questions to. I am 36 and my wife is 31. The only retirement we have is my 401k which is only about 55k and that doesnt seem like much to me. We both work with an annual household income of about 90k. How far am I behind the rest of the world?

Thanks for all the input you guys are great.
