[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I'm 35. There's an early retirement movement where entire families retire on investment portfolios of $600k - $1.5m and live frugally forever. That's seeming increasingly more attractive by the day. My situation would be different because my spouse plans on continuing working, but I don't want resentment to seep in.[/quote] No no no no. You accumulate enough capital where you can live on dividends, not capital. This mean having several millions, not 1.5M! Then if you need expensive medical care at some point, you spend your capital, and the rest goes to your kids. [/quote]
