    I live on one of the Coasts, have a family of 4 + dog + 3 cats. My kids go to public school and I live in the town where people are not getting killed for just standing on the corner. I also pay my taxes, my wife and I both working very hard to give good life to kids and our selves. So where is the problem then?

  7. I would say the best time to retire is when u have 2mil
    Even if you put it on interest 2M X 4% = is $80K a year
    That is preety decent but very tuff to make it :(

    Not a bad start for free money though:)

  9. Just so you know, its not really free money at all.

    Inflation is eating away at your buying power, so eventually the 80k wont buy you a Big Mac and a phone call to your bookmaker.

  10. em
    wrong.

    80k

    bought you lots in 70s
    80s
    90s
    2000s
    2006
    2010
    2020
    2030


    and will continue to do so for the next 50 years.

    To think 80k won't buy you anything anytime in the next 100 years.

    Sort of like the losers who keep yelling out a Million ain't worth much these days. They've been saying that since the 50s and its still rare.


    You: sheep.
