I'm as retired as I'll ever be at age 59.. I'll be working p/t forever. Currently working one 24 hr sleep shift per wk saving $800 a month towards retirement. Only 50k saved. Married 40 yrs. Fixed expenses are 1k a month, food not included. Live off-grid, own our cabin on 4 acres.. Solar & propane. E-Car & E-bikes for transport. Grow about 25% of our own food. $ isn;t my main worry. We have a son with schizophrenia so health is my main concern. So much so it's not worth it for me to ever take my Social Security, it will kick us off the free healthcare which you never need to worry about denials. So we'll live forever on his $1730 a month income and any $ I earn. It's all good. We're fine. No debt.
Good video. Can agree with mostly all points. When the job isn't fun anymore and you're not there to make ends meet, it's time to go.
Agreed. Thanks for commenting
