What’s the youngest a normie fa can retire?

Someone who didn’t come from money and didn’t win the lottery and just works a normal job not making around like 80k what’s the you best you could realistically retire?
Assume this person buys a small relatively cheap house young and lives very beneath their means and maxs out 401k drives old paid off car and has no debt could he retire around 35?

No normal people are retiring at 35. You need some type of revenue stream or large nest egg to sustain you for the rest of your life. Even 55 is considered an early retirement these days.
