Save for a new (to us) car, have enough extra to fund kids' 529s, and get our personal spending to be consistent (wife is the main culprit, it's much too variable for my taste).

Financially, mainly just keep on keeping on. I already max all tax advantaged accounts so I plan to continue. My efund is set, so nothing to do there. Since I'm within a few k, I'd love to hit $500k invested but that's mostly up to the market.

We're talking about moving in ~4 years so we'll start saving up for a down payment on top of maxing out our IRAs. Right now, the plan is to convert our current house into a rental when it's time.

While I won't be able to do it in 2024, I should be very close to paying off my house by the end of the year. Assuming the economy doesn't crash, my goal is to pay it off entirely in the first half of 2025, at which point I'll be completely debt free (I paid off the last of my student loans two years ago and I paid off my car earlier this year).

My non-discretionary expenses (food, electricity, etc.) will be pretty low at that point, perhaps less than a couple thousand per month. Security, for me, is being able to survive on a minimum wage job if it somehow became necessary, and owing no one anything.

I'd be farther along, but I overspent this year. It's unusual for me, but I'm not going to worry too much about it. I'll just do a better job of reining it in this year.

My goal is to remain employed and hopefully earn at least as much as I did last year. My company is on the reorg merry go round at the moment and it is likely my department will be reorganized again before we even complete the changes from the last round.

I would prefer not to change jobs at the moment, but if it happens I am hoping to find something quick to maintain my current savings rate. While I can afford to take some time off, I'm more interested in getting to my FI goal quickly.

Financially speaking: Save minimum 100k USD.

Else, get back into practising Norwegian on a daily basis, I've plateaued in the past and didn't put much effort in anymore.

Good luck! Fingers crossed it ends up being at the high end of the range for you. The differences in the pricing algorithms is wild. We’ve had a spread of up to $300k on our house at different points.

One thing that I do find annoying is that Redfin updates its estimate history retroactively, it’s not a point in time snapshot of their estimates, but instead an over time estimate using their current pricing model. I kind of get it, but it also kind of seems like cheating.
