    You were extremely lucky with that interest. Congrats! What are you both planning/doing for retirement now? Are you going to try to max your contributions to make up for cashing out?

      Absolutely lucky. Thanks!

      We increased our contributions to what we can afford and went from $0 in 2020 to $52k now. Just keeping on keeping on.

      Trying to pay down all other outstanding debt (car, solar loan) higher than what we can make back through other investments. My wife has a job that will match 7% after a vesting period, so we’re waiting for that nice bump to really figure things out from there.
