A lot of people dream of early retirement. But it's a hard thing to pull off if you don't have a lot of money. If you're in your early 40s with a net worth of over $4 million, then you're in a very different boat.
What I really love about this particular post is that the Redditor started their own business in their late 30s so they could leave their husband at the time. Their business then exploded, allowing them to earn millions.
The poster could keep working a few more years and make a few more million bucks. But that doesn't sound like a smart move. Maintaining a long-distance relationship is not easy, and it sounds like this person's relationship is the one thing in their life that's bringing them joy.
If you're able to continue generating income with investments, you can potentially cover your costs. Retiring early is possible, and it may be easier than you think.
