[quote=Anonymous]I recommend to you Frugal woods' comparison of costs in Boston vs Rural Vermont. The country is not as inexpensive as people think. Property taxes can be quite high, and you pay for a lot of things yourself that you wouldn't in a city. Really think about this. Plus travel to see family, that will eat up a lot of your LCOL savings. I do think $90K a year is not that much after all the expenses of children. I guess if that's what you want, go for it, but it seems like a sad and boring life to me. Lots of people enjoy their work and find it meaningful and interesting. I'm sorry that hasn't been the case for you. But sitting around unemployed all day is going to be boring. Lots of people who retire early end up going back to work out of boredom. If you think your wife wants to provide 100% of your adult social interaction, think again. [/quote]
