I'm 43 and been saving to retire early my whole life. It's been my goal to just be outdoors and paddle, backpack, hunt, fish and kick back and travel.
Up until the financial mees we're in, I had 44 months to go.  The light was at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes three jobs to do it and stay debt free my whole adult life.
I will put it off another three and see what things look like when I'm 49
