Maybe I’m dumb, or can’t wrap my head around it, but when people say this I’m always trying to understand the total amount.
Does a 401(k) really count, because of the age limits for retrieving this money?
Do you include reducing liabilities, like a mortgage payment? Say I put X additional amount into my mortgage, and reduce the pay down time, should that count as monthly savings even though it is not liquid?
How can I think about various accounts, what I should access if I need/want cash for something and how should I consider liquid vs illiquid assets?
