[quote=Anonymous]We always over saved in order to have FU money. That FU money gave us the opportunity to make big career bets. By the time I was 50 our net worth was about $15 million which was definitely retirement money. But I still had kids in HS so why retire. So I took a good 10-15% of the money and started another business with some partners. It was very successful and I retired from full time at 60 tripling my net worth. Along the way I had a lot of fun. You’re still a babe in the woods. So much crap can happen to you over the next 15 years that thinking about retiring at 45 is wasted energy. $4 million in 15 years will not be enough to retire on for another 45 years. Focus on succeeding big over the next 20 years and the money will follow. [/quote]
