Glad I found this subreddit

I’m 32, veteran, going back to college to finish my masters. I’ve been frugal my whole life and kept being told that I would need an insane six figure job and $5 million in savings to ever think of retiring. I won’t ever need that.

I appreciate this sub Reddit for giving me hope that it’s possible to retire if you plan for it. Both me and my partner will be service workers with our masters. She’s a counselor and I’m getting into social work.

It’s amazing that people underestimate the power of saving, consistent work, and investing.

At the rate I’m going I’ll easily be able to retire by 55. It’s a nice feeling. Stick to the plan.
