You need more money to stop caring about the market 😂

Touché.

I'm not that good with money nor make that much so I'll probably be working into my 60s if people will even hire me.

I’m in my late 30s and could retire now (fire) but more likely I’ll look for a less-effectively-monetized role doing something useful to the world by the time I’m 45. I don’t really want to stop working, but I do want to make sure I’m using my time to work on issues affecting the world that are important to me.

Like what

At 46 if ACA doesn’t get killed.

2008 seems to be a fading memory for people already. No advance plan to retire. If I retire, it would probably be a spot decision.

Why would you want to retire and let your brain turn to mush?

Oracle marriedM Jul 11, 2019

So true! People who are boasting about early retirement probably haven't seen anyone up close and observed what it does to their mind and body. YMMV

Only really marginal minds need a master telling them what to do in order to be creative, productive and thoughtful.

Define retirement? I've been retired in my definition for a long time but am still working.

Microsoft Brazuka Jul 11, 2019

The normal definition is obvious. You should say your definition instead

Facebook public2 Jul 11, 2019

No it's not obvious, some refer to it as not working, some refer to it as not working a normal job, some refer to it as having enough money so that work is optional.

Already retired at 29. Large inheritance of 10m. I just run some side businesses a few hours a week now. Woke up at 2 pm today and might grab some sushi then head to the gym ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
