I did miss that. Though, I think my comment still holds, 3 pages of responses and only two or three mentions about controlling expenses still qualifies as not very "much focus on the possibility of lowering expenses".
While we're at it though, it's not too bad a suggestion. Rather than a permanent lowering of expenses, he could drastically lower expenses temporarily by living in a tent for a few years while his investments compound on themselves. I did it for a year and had a great adventure; -hunting my food, hiking all day, getting as much sleep as I could ever want.
Then he could come back to a more typical lifestyle after a few years of that and have an extra $100k+ in his nest egg from the savings. Could be a nice alternative to working his miserable job for 3 more years.
