If you plan on retiring real early, then you better make way more than you do know or live so frugally, it's near pointless. Assume, you have a lot of money by the time that you are 65... so what? Your health likely will not allow you take advantage of it... People in other countries outside of the USA do not put nearly the emphasis on this as people in the USA do, I don't know whether this has to do with the profitability of selling retirement plans or what...

In any case, give me $100k a year for the next 35 years and I am good. You can do the math lol.
This is the live for today, lease cars reverse mortgage generation. It' snot sustainable for generations.
