[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] I love the FIRE ideas mostly. However, some of the people have invested in real estate and get income from that. Others have pensions. They are not all always entirely transparent about their other sources of income or skills they have and use to generate additional income through carpentry, etc. You have to look at healthcare costs and so on and none of us here can give you a solid answer without all the facts and details.
