don't be them. if you're happy who cares what these crabs think.
Haha you're right. I have a lot of experience with these crabs though. Once you put money on the table they scatter like flies...cel this and cel that.

Those in the rat race envy your happiness...and like you said want to pull you into the bucket. Anyone that escapes they figure must be hopelessly unhappy. LOL.

It's not looking for validation when you're simply educating people on what is possible to escape the rat race. I offer hope and insight from someone that did it and lived it.

I give the numbers to set as a goal...and how to budget. It's up to each individual to decide if the path is worth it. For me...no amount of money could get me working.

What is it you think I need to buy that will enhance happiness?

Stay in the rat race my love.

What's mediocre? I took my retirement during basically all of my young life. lol at people that hate life for 50 years to get a chance at living this "great" retirement at age 70.

Seems like you've convinced yourself a lot of material stuff will actually make you happier or improve your life. What's a slightly bigger or newer car, a slightly bigger house or a more expensive vacation destiny really gonna change for you? Sometimes more expensive doesn't necessarily make you more happy.

He like a lot of people have been cucked into a vision that keeps them in the rat race their whole life. It's a shame.

Thanks for confirming that you were and are just looking for validation.
the fact that you think I'm looking for validation just shows how salty you are. How many more years you got to go?

At $200k a year?
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Eh, no. Unless you move to Thailand or some sht.

I would look at having a nice house large enough for a family of 4-5 paid off (a mil or so minimum), and then a couple mil in a passive fund generating 6-8% a year (120-160k) and maybe another 500k in other assets as legit retirement goals. Going off current crypto holdings another mild bull run will do it for me, or another 15 years or so in stocks.

Living passively like a povertycel is no way to live, I'd rather just have a job at that point.

yeah maybe if you are single and want a basic life in a cheaper state (nothing wrong with that)

but if you want a family and live in certain places. thats a big negative

I have a house that's perfectly fine for a family of 4 or 5. And I have all the time in the world to spend with kids...which are actually incredibly cheap to raise if you don't create materialistic monsters.

Regardless of what I look like, you should stop focusing on me, and focus on your upcoming custody hearing. Your common law "wife" who is having sex with men other than you would take you for all your worth, but you can't even keep a job. Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you getting to see your kids without supervision.

Though I am flattered that you have saved my pics and keep posting them.

A family doesn't add much to the costs of living...especially if you have a spouse making at least $20k+/year.
