Hi I’m new to this forum and I am looking to retire in under 10 years. I have a part time job that pays £800 a month and I currently spend around £300 a month, I don’t have any kids and still live with my parents. I have £743.36 in my buildings society and I add in what I haven’t spent that month so around £450-£500 monthly (more when I’m in full time employment). I started learning about financial independence a few months ago (August 2013) and I am learning the basics about stocks, bonds, mutual funds, REIT’s, options and real estate individually, then picking the one I feel more comfortable with investing in and then adding in the others.
I’m hoping to retire within 10 years (hopefully around 27-29) and move to America (possibly California, Alabama, Georgia, Wyoming), I know that moving to America is not easy as you have to fit a certain criteria eg: have a company that’s willing to sponsor you, have medical training, have a close family member who lives there.
Does this sound possible at all?
Thanks.
