I read “retire by 35 “ by Paul terhorst in high school. My plan was 55 for a while.
I was in the reserves and then active duty. The plan then was 30 yrs(age 47).
Spent 3 years in Iraq 2003-2006 got some lung issues and a few tbi’s.
Several years of my health deteriorateing when I year in Afghanistan set off the end of my military career medically.
So I retired from the army age 45 and from my civilian job 6 months later. Fully retired age 45.
Health overall is improved day to day still have a Progressive debilitating fatal lung disease but overal I’m doing well.
