109 months or 463 weeks or 3052 days until retirement

That's based on the current projections for when I'll hit my FIRE number.

Sounds like you're about to start counting the minutes, dude.
Chill.

But not that you're counting.

The last several months at the j*b, I had a countdown displayed on my message board for all to see. There was NEVER any doubt as to how long I had left!

lol - if you think that's bad you should see how the last 3 years I've been checking my Mint and Personal Capital apps several times a day as if by magic I'll find a pot of gold in there.

I just needed some way to measure progress and stay motivated. I figure counting months is probably my best bet at this point.

I'm just as bad of a "scoreboard" watcher myself, counting down the months and tracking my nestegg.

Hey, it could be worse. You could be looking at 2028 like me.

I think it will be painful to start down that far away. I did the count down for 8 weeks and it seemed like eternity.
