I found this article about Ambition with an Early Retirement slant very interesting
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...b62cd0-71df-11e5-8248-98e0f5a2e830_story.html
Basically advocates for not having ambition. Author was a journalist who said he followed the rule of one wife, one house and thinks the benefits of ambition are overstated.
Thought it was an interesting article. I was probably a bit more ambitious than he was. But, his view reminds me a lot of my husband who worked over 30 years for the same company and happily retired at 62.
