I have been lurking for a few months now and wanted to say hello to the group and thank all of you for the high quality information dispensed on this forum.
I am in my early 40s and I live in a high cost of living area. At this stage I am more focused on financial independence than retirement. I would not describe myself as frugal but I think that I have done pretty well in the wealth accumulation department by living below my means. I am about halfway to my net worth target. I think that I have a good shot at reaching that target in the next decade but I am not in such a hurry to get there as to forgo the things that make me happy (like living where I do despite the high cost).
I am here to continue my education with regard to investing and retirement planning. And I thank you in advance for the guidance.
