I spend too much money. I’d love to retire before 50 but that’s been pushed to 55 at the earliest.

I’ll do some consulting in retirement for money for cars and guns

Convince my wife to retire, because as long as she is working, there isn't much reason for me to retire, since the main thing we don't have time for is more travel. I do like working, but I have already worked 8 years longer than I had planned to, plus I hit the magical 59 1/2 next November.

Luckily mine is already retired and just does pro bono work now so I should be in good shape. Just need to get the ex off payroll and my son off to college.

In 5 years all my kids will be out of college. So I plan on saving some money.

Same. Our youngest will be 23 in 5 years.

Hopefully be in a new home and renting the current one out. Will also Hopefully have a healthy 4 year old by then. I'm financially secure with minimal debt but still feel like I'm way behind since I didnt finish school and get a career established until I was 29ish. Hopefully I'm able to keep saving at the current rate. I havent really changed up my lifestyle/spending habits over the past 6 or 7 years even though my income has doubled, I want to continue that.

Im torn on the new home thing. I dont have much space currently but my bills are so low I could work at the tractor supply up the road and not dip into savings. I'm at the point in life where I want nice stuff, though.

I almost posted on FB just now that I am going to be needing a supplemental job by the summer, but I decided to wait until it's more urgent.

So call it a five month plan to find something - anything - to add to my income.
