[quote=Anonymous]DH and I are in our early 40s with 2 kids and net worth of a bit over 3M including a paid off house. We have always saved pretty aggressively by living below our means because we do want to retire early. We have no debt anymore and kids are in public schools. DH thinks we can retire now if we move to a LCOL, but it’s just not practical in my opinion. For one health insurance will be very expensive because we both now have health conditions which only recently came to light. Also kids love the area we live in and their friends so it would be selfish to uproot them. Additionally our parents are getting old and require more and more help, so we would be abandoning them if we moved. So there you have it, while theoretically we could retire, I don’t see it happening for another 10 years. I do think we could work part time or in less stressful jobs though.[/quote]
