Hello Board. This Forum is loaded with very good advice and I am hoping to get some also.
Here's my deal:
I am 42, have a fast food business that will sell for $2,300,000, have $1,575,000 in stocks and cash, and a house with equity of $1,300,000. After capital gains and buying a new house cash, I'd have approximately $4,100,000 to live on for the next 50 years.
I have the following questions:
1. Can I get $150,000 per year till I die and have enough to leave for my two children? What strategy?
2. Have people who retired early with teen children regretted them not seeing you work? What did you tell them? How did they do in their careers?
3. Based on your experience, was it better to stay in a job you hate, but make good money or just retire with a little less money than you hoped to accumulate?
Your responses are appreciated.
