@jacobdoesmoney2: Most people think retiring early means making millions every year. It doesn’t. It means building enough invested assets that your portfolio can pay your bills. Using the 4% rule: $750K invested = about $2,500/month $1.5M invested = about $5,000/month $3M invested = about $10,000/month That’s the whole game. Spend less than you make. Invest the difference. Let boring index funds do the heavy lifting. Comment “Invest” and I’ll send you the full investing guide I use in my $2M portfolio.
