[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re mid-50s and our number is around $4M to generate income (with one modest pension & SS). This will probably take into our mid-60s to do, [b]so we have to guess when we reach the breakpoint of enough money to support a lot of travel vs enough healthy years to actually do it.[/b] [/quote]

So glad I never understood the "magic" of traveling.  I'd much rather spend time in my nice house than a random village in Thailand.

Since this magical activity seems to be a significant cost in retirement for many, I also get to retire earlier.  Yay, me![/quote]

I think of the world as a yard you can play in. I cannot relate to someone who is content to spend their life in one corner of the yard and not explore what else there is. [/quote]

Different strokes for different folks. But air travel is one of the biggest contributors to global warming out there. The world may be your playground but it’s also where you eat breathe and sleep. [/quote]

Please share with us everything else that you do because of your concern about global warming. Lol. Let me guess, nothing. You say that only because you can’t afford to travel.[/quote]

It’s so true. Private air travel puts out a ton of carbon emissions. It’s incredibly wasteful and selfish. And no, you cannot recycle your way out of this. One of the many reasons Harry and Meghan look ridiculous preaching about climate change is their use of private air. Same for Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. Next level materialism and waste.

Unlike the Duke and Duchess and Jeff Bezos, I travel coach.  I’m good. [/quote]
