I want to semi-ER in August at 52. 40k pension which will start receiving a COLA in ten years. In four years I will start getting an additional 500 per month in a special supplement until eligible for SS at 62. I have 450k in TSP, 125k in Roth IRA, 75k cash. All retirement accounts invested 60/40 using indexed funds. Tri-care covers medical until 65. Small mortgage of 850 per month in a LCOL area. Pension covers living expenses including mortgage. 72(t) distributions from TSP will cover extras (fun, travel). Won't touch IRA. I plan to consult part-time for an extra 5-10k a year. I will take SS at 70 and DW will have a small (500 per month) SS at 62.
I'm tired of fighting traffic and craziness at work. I want to move to the South and spend more time with my ten year old son pursuing outdoors fun stuff. FIRCALC gives me 95-100 % depending on desired income amounts I use (60k to 70k).
Is anyone else ERing with similar numbers? Anyone have any thoughts on my plan? Thanks.
