it literally says "retired at 42" under his user name.

Though I should be financially ready around 50-55, I'll likely work till 60 for the healthcare and pension benefits. That will also coincide pretty much with when my youngest is off to college or career or whatever he ends up doing.

Plan to keep working as long as I'm physically able to. It's the getting out of the house and contributing to society that'll hopefully extend my will to live longer and keep me feeling useful.



atm slowly setting things up towards that life. Living 10 min walk away from work, doing something I enjoy, and getting paid enough to live comfortably and save a little, get paid more each year for same or less work hours, and having good workmates. Either I'm coping and pretty foolish and unambitious, or balanced work-life and I'm onto something real special here.

prob sell my shares of the company before I'm 50 and get out of the every day nonsense. I'll have the means to retire then but I doubt I will fully. Thinking about going back to consulting. Was fun, made good money doing it and if I want to take 2 months off it's not a problem as long as all contracts are wrapped up.

This is the answer to the question.

and LOL and most saying 55 in this thread. Funny how everyone says it but in real life you rarely see people doing it. I guess everyone's definition of retire is also different. But for me, if I retire at 55, i want to ensure i have mid 8 figures.

100%. Keep pushing, keep learning, stay around younger up-and-comers and keep yourself sharp. Retirement soon becomes straight up LDAR mode, no fukking thanks

If I become a doctor I like to think I'd work into my late 60's-early 70's. Some of the doctors I see that age are so knowledgeable they just cruise through work and still pull in that bank.

31 years old at 2.8 million right now.

Will work part time starting at 45 or 5 million, whichever comes first.
