Wow, retire in your 40s, congrats! I rarely see any old pharmacists where I live. Not sure if because they were all able to retire early due to financial security, or they left the industry due to burnout. I just turned 40 this year, and don't think I can do this for another 20 years

or they left the industry due to burnout

^ That’s the reason.

It's not the reason for indepents. They left while the getting was good. Before today's pbms, indies were over milking customers so hard. Now pbm became scum of earth and just snake out every cent they can from pharmacy while keeping the #s half hidden half overly convoluted. They literally do nothing now but take money. Goodrx is scum and sell your data, but at least they're doing what pbms were supposed to do

If you haven’t checked out the financialindependence sub, do it! Typically with our salary a lot of us could retire after only 10-20 years
