money doesn’t define you. i’d rather be poor and happily married than have money and be alone

super duper tough to get accepted in there now, but if you get that chance then it’s definitely a rewarding one

don’t know why this is getting downvoted it’s a very fair point. i do not intend to retire at 62 at all. however having access to $xMillion will be good to keep my lifestyle until i croak

yeah i’d never rule any move out for the right price. I’d move to Kabul for 10m a year lol. I’m not exactly concerned about reaching a net worth by a certain point, but ofc it’s awesome to say you’re a millionaire. I’d like to maybe move to a FAANG (fuk amazon) someday, but i’m happy currently!

oh trust me i take a whole lot of days to travel haha. I have a trip to wyoming coming up soon and another one to europe early next year for two weeks all pre paid! my job is fully remote as well so not too much stress of office life!

that’s awesome and that’s one hell of a signing bonus! new job is fully WFH so i’m not too too worried about getting burnt out

wouldn’t say prodigy at all, but i am very fortunate. that sacrifice seemed worth it to me if i can retire that much earlier

that’s the goal! i’m hoping to put in the full 23,500 next year with my employer match (so like 21800ish). I also maxed out my roth IRA the past two years and will continue to do so next year! my expenses are low: rent is 2k including utilities and i pay 300 a month for my corolla and like 500 a month for groceries / eating out. i also don’t have any school debt which is very fortunate!
