I want to retire early
It is quite simple. I hate working the 9 @ 5 for corporate America every single day of my life and have only 2 or 3 weeks of vacation per year during which I feel like a prisoner on permission. So, my goal is simply to retire from the rat race as soon as possible and live off my passive sources of income.
I was 32 when I first started that journey. It was in 2013. By 2026 or at my 45th birthday, I want to be retired or at least have the choice to do something else with my time. Maybe I’ll completely stop working, maybe I’ll work part time or maybe I’ll even become a freelancer.
This plan will give me choices and open new opportunities in my life and for my family.
I had dreams when I was younger. Now, at 32, I realized that I had spent a lot of time on my career and that I had achieved some success but… That was not the way I was picturing my life…
Some may think that I shouldn’t complain and they are right. I have a great situation. Just being born in America in our era is a blessing. Having a job is a blessing. Being in good health is a blessing too.
I am not complaining. I am just looking to improve my situation and to own my time on earth to do better things than repeating the same tasks again and again like a machine.
