I also agree with your other post about needing to focus on cashflow rather than networth. All you have to replace is your paycheck. This is my first time on your site - great to see more of a UK perspective in the pf blogosphere! Nice idea, focusing on the goals/numbers you can control.

I agree that setting realistic and achievable goals like saving 15% of our salary and reducing the monthly shopping bill by 20% are the first steps towards financial freedom.

If you have a house, stocks etc then the valuations are out of your control.

I have refused to publicly track my net worth because so much of it is tied up in my company's stock (401k, options, etc.) it goes up and down and i have no control over it.
