Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I've been thinking a bit lately on how much it costs per year for a lifestyle similar to that which the Terhorsts' (http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/Shores/5315/index.html) or the Kaderli's (http://www.geocities.com/ba264/) have. I know that a lot will depend on exactly where you go and what you do but if anyone is following such a lifestyle would give me some real life figures and a rough idea of what that paid for (i.e. 3 months in Thailand in a beach house + 1 month in Greece in a furnished apt. + 2 months in Eastern Europe by train + ...) that would be greatly appreciated.
I'm seriously rethinking my required assets fore FIRE. I've been planning on 7 more years (until my mid-40's) with a projected NW a good bit north of $1M. A few $100K is intended as an amount to buy a retirement pad when we (my wife and I) decide to stop travelling. Am I aiming too high? Do I need that much? Every year puts a lot of money into the pot and the last few years of that 7 should add more than the preceeding ones but is it worth it?
Thanks for any feedback.
