That is what I was hoping for. I am not sure how this works but this early retirement has been doing on in my place forever and with Trump coming in (who said he would try to encourage retirement) I think it might stick around. So far it seems a lot of people leave every year. I did not know...

No I think you read my post wrong. I was saying I spend a lot of money due to working. So if I retired presumably I would have lower cost of living. Now I spend about 3400 per month and if I stopped working i bet I could make it comfortably on 2600 per month. So I would SAVE about 800 by not...

It does. I have already done that and I seem to spend about 500 to 700 per month on working. This includes dry cleaning, expensive food out because am working, parking costs, new clothing, hair maintenance. I expect I could live on 2500 per month even here in MA. But what I worry abut is...

I am a 46 year old single lady in the very expensive state of Massachusetts. For most of my last 14 years with the Federal Government that I work for I had an abusive boss. When he left I thought things would be better and, in a lot of ways they are, but I realized to my horror... I HATE the...
