I retired at 40.
Sold my insurance agency, paid off all debt.
Own majority of small but rapidly growing hvac company where I work doing office stuff 10 hrs/wk, opening a remodeling franchise where I plan on working 7 hours/wk, publishing children’s book, opening up Cajun cafe franchises with buddy from lsu in the UK (he’s relocating). Wife gives swim lessons at our pool. We have one child (4) and planning on another.
We spend a ton of time with our child, our aging parents, and we enjoy life. We would be better off financially if I kept working 70 hours/wk at the agency, but it was killing my health and crushing my soul. Other businesses may flop and I’ll have to return to work, but they should be bringing in enough income so we can coast in life. We don’t keep up with the Jones by any means though, so that should help.

Ooof no good. If your job is relaxing, no need to retire.
