Hi all,
I found this site quite by accident but have found myself on here quite a bit just reading all the info.
I am 53. DW is 54. Kids are both out of college and off on their own. We have no dept outside of the house itself and its more than half paid for on a 10 year note, that we are 4 years into. We have about 700K in pension and 401K right now. Both are putting 20% of our salaries away toward retirement. Both working at a megacorp and looking forward to the day when we can walk away from working in corporate America.
We have our sites set on that 1 Mil mark (maybe just a little over for cushion) and then I think we are going to dump the jobs and retire. We believe we will hit that in 5 to 6 years. Then we sell our house, buy something smaller, pocket the difference and live the quiet life. LOL
