@ Jacq:

Congrats on finding your exit strategy & impressed you’ve been monitoring it for years. Yes, very much agree with semi-retirement as see many benefits – staying intellectually engaged, security of additional income, & passing along your skills/knowledge to younger workers to name a few.

There will always be a swing range on the exact amount, but how big do you want that V? Taking your index/pinky vs. index/middle finger – I’d feel much better with the 1st/2nd finger range.

I’ve been monitoring firecalc for the last few years to figure out when to pull the plug. $750k plus working about 200 hours a year will do it, so I’m pulling the plug now. If I had a spouse, I’d need or want a higher amount.

I think a broad number is good to go for but I’ve also noticed with many people lately that they are either having to or wanting to go the semi-retirement route that I am. You might find that’s the case as you get closer to actually reaching your goal.

Nice site and cool list. I’m a fairly new blogger and ran accross this club at J Money’s blog too.

I have somewhat similar goals too, and am considering joining as well.

@ Money Funk.

Thanks! It’s nerdy, but I’m all about this new page I was introduced to – Firecalc.com Gives a TON of information re: retirement info.

Hey, don’t rule it out yet! With what you’re accomplishing now, it will be the same principles in reverse (I think that makes sense…same but opposite?)

That was a great post over there at Eliminate the Muda! Good for you on joining the club. I don't think I am in quite the position to join yet. Let me lift my NW and then I will definitely consider. .-= Money Funk´s last blog ..ING Orange Saving Account =-.
