'Retire' and live off investments early to mid 40s, then do something more creative / fun. Maybe open a BJJ gym, a cinema, mentor some young people etc.
Yeah I feel the same way. My dream is to have an art gallery in East Village NYC and a MMA gym with a spin studio in SoCal.
Given the state of the economy, currently not in the realm of anything remotely thinkable.
Don’t know if I’d ever fully “retire” but I definitely plan on cutting back my work when I have a family.
I’ll likely then switch to a more traditional 9-5 that’s hybrid of fully remote.
I guess big goal would be monetizing my passions and just do those for work while my future investments work for me
