Observations:
Most of the increase went from exchange rate EUR to USD went up. Without taking exchange rate into account total gain over last three months is $11K USD. This is still very reasonable increase, despite galloping inflation.
The challenge for this year onwards to supplement the nest egg with additional investments – to diversify and improve the position. With exception of an extraordinary events I am not planning to use the money for the next 30+ years. I still working but currently see no way out, other than working until normal pension age. At current pace, I will consider myself lucky if I have enough money to retire by then. One of the thing I would like to do is to calculate the life cycle cash flow, looking at the earnings now.
I noticed that somehow with the income slowdown my motivation to be physically fit is following the amount of savings I can put aside. Working on mentally break the trend.
