I'm 52 and effectively retired. There's a very small chance I'll do a gig here and there, but only if they are really interesting to me. I was going to retire at 55, but Covid lockdowns sped up my plans a little.
anyone can retire anytime, but it's the financial part that makes the call. I wonder how much is enough to retire at early 50s: typical family still have kids attending college, medicare is not kicked in,etc.
unless I am going to make a fortune somehow, I see no way for me to retire in early 50s, but if I win a lottery, I probably will retire.
