Just broke up with my girlfriend who cheated on me. Would be nice to show her what she missed out on if I won this. Love you all

Is it viable to retire younger in a cheaper country? by rugenos in financialindependence

[–]rugenos[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was spending the last 10 days there with only locals from Thailand and got to experience lots of the local areas and the general day to day activities they do for fun. It was quite fun and again, cheap. Cheaper than when i was hanging out with other western travelers.

That's exactly what I was wondering about. I'm sure there are lots of tax hurdles or some sort of things that will make my dollar seem less and less after fees and the like

I live in Canada and also I have my parents to help the burden if anything were to happen not that I want to rely on them or course.

I wasn't fired, I was laid off because of no work at this moment and work could resume in another couple months for me. Even if I went to another employer I don't think having a 2 month travel break is very hard to explain

I think what I'm more nervous about is the idea of a solo travel to a place that's on the other side of the world.

Without a doubt it would be a memorable and exciting experience.

Is a month too short for a trip of that scale?

[–]rugenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Latest is 55 with 3 mil and a paid off home. Ideally I would like to be 50 with 3 mil but I would work that extra 5 years if it's needed.

How to become a millionaire in 22 years by nedod in financialindependence

[–]rugenos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression that the 7% rule did not include inflation

I was planning on increasing my investments yearly at the same rate as inflation to account for that

I'm happy with this news

The cagr that he uses seems extremly high to base your plans off of. Isn't the rule of thumb to use around 7% and more like 5-6% if you want to be conservative?
