I’m similar. I don’t deprive myself anything but also don’t spend most of what I make. As an example, I’m traveling to Greece this summer but not going crazy on luxury bookings. I could definitely stop working in my 50s but will probably keep doing something. I just want to have options and not work as hard as I do now. I think work is healthy but also realize life is short and unpredictable after my mom died of cancer last year. She had retired two years earlier but couldn’t do anything after she got sick. I don’t want to regret not enjoying life.

I would like a lot more flexibility in my work schedule whenever possible. What you are describing is exactly why I am big on the financial independence objective. My general target is $5M investable assets much of which will need to be in taxable brokerage.

Amen brother. That’s what living life should be all about. I’ve seen too many people have their lives cut short. I’m in Spain now on day 2 of a 31-day European trip.
