I'm saving too, everything these days has one aim and that's to provide for retirement.

Snap. The sooner I have enough spondoolies to last me for the rest of my life, I am stopping working. End of.
My eldest brother retired at 48. He was a director of a company you have definitely heard of. He did some consultancy work for a while but found satisfaction in volunteering for a mental health charity, using all the business skills he had. Now at the age of 60 he and his wife have just bought a motor home in Australia and in a few weeks they are heading out there for six months with no itinery, just driving to see where they end up. Jammy git.@User9609 I'm the same as @gavroche
I retired at 48 and my wife at 41 - within a year we were bored.
Lovely Wife now happily works in a 'lesser' role and I have swapped life as a retired MD of a large-ish business with all that came with it for my own vastly smaller lifestyle business.
Keeps us both sane and, because we know that we have more than enough salted away to see out the rest of our lives, we are very relaxed about working as there is no pressure to do so and it is 100% on our own terms.
But what number is enough?
How much is not enough?A penny more than not enough.![]()
