You have to ask yourself this- how much is enough, and how hard are you willing to work/risk for it? On the low end, how much is the minimum, and what pros would make that acceptable, quality of life, risk, anxiety levels, etc.
Your way forward will be much clearer when you know what your parameters are, even though life may happen between now and the end date of your plans.
- foota 2y agoI constantly am :) well, not constantly, but I've put thought into it. I'm not exactly thrifty, but I spend way below what I could. I've been trying to spend less (eat out less, live in a cheaper apartment, etc.,) to see how comfortable that feels to try and figure out what sort of budget I'm happy with. On the flip side, it's funny to think about what life would look like if I spent all my disposable income, but it's not really an experiment I want to run haha. I think the most likely scenario is that I take some time off and decide to continue working similarly to now, but I think it'll be nice to have some confidence that I can have more freedom to choose what I want to do if I show myself that I could afford to retire. I largely like my job. I wish there was less stress and external pressure, but it seems difficult to keep the parts of my job that I like without those.
