31M , hit 500K today , started with $0 at 25

I moved to the U.S. at 25 during the middle of COVID with basically $0, coming here with my parents as a first-gen immigrant. It was a pretty steep learning curve.

Fast forward to now—how am I doing in terms of reaching $1M in cash?

Current situation:

• ~$150K in home equity

• ~$100K across retirement accounts

• $300K W-2 income (started mid-2024)

I have been investing aggressively, selling options mostly and have made most of it in a few particular stocks ( not in SP500 or any index funds yet)

Would appreciate any perspective or advice on how I’m tracking and what I should focus on next.
