I still have marrying well as an option lol!
48 or sooner. I was fortunate to discover "FIRE" about a decade ago and have since plowed money into retirement and after tax investments above all else. Given we work in a hyper consumption industry, at first it felt like a major sacrifice that would never pay off when I compared myself to everyone else (you know - having anything nice like a nice house, cars, consumer things). I was pretty hardcore about not spending money on anything besides basic needs for a good 6/7 years. But that FOMO is completely gone as I sit on over a 1.3 million dollar nest egg at 42 years old. Very fortunate/privileged no doubt, but honestly I had no help from family along the way and only made a normal middle management salary so ill give myself a small pat on the back for that. Compound interest is indeed the 8th wonder of the world if you can keep it on your side.
CD4 no doubt. I have most of this money in S&P500 index funds, but have done enough self education around asset allocation to minimize some risk. IE portion in long term bonds, gold, cash, commodities etc. All in theory help if there is an economic calamity in the stock market. But I don't count my chickens before they hatch so this is all long term money I will just let ride and not mess with.
HAHAHA
Never bc I’d only be able to afford a small town with low cost of living. And that would be a death sentence worse that working until I’m 75
Jesus, read the room.
Hopefully 50 🙂
Never
67 for full benefit with ability to earn over 18k. Actually 24 - 27 months, 10 hours and 46 seconds. But who’s counting? Never 70 unless a miracle happens and I can wait to take my benefits.
Can’t get Medicare until 65. Unless something changes, getting insurance on your own will be unaffordable.
“Retired” is self defined. For me it’s making my
Own schedule, which can include calls and meetings and work sessions to make significant money.
If you're 59.5 years old, talk to your FA if you have one- at this age, you can start 'living off your interest', and think along the lines of supplemental income.
In my next life at some point close to dying.
How ever old I am when I die I guess
When freelance jobs stop coming in. Or if that doesn’t happen, in 8 years or so.
Hilarious!
Um…well my mortgage is currently going until I’m 74 so….
Never

Hopefully at 60 with major cuts to my lifestyle. IF I get another 12-15 years in this business. Thats the tricky part.
