The third point is the most valid...Hi Christopher,<br /><br />The third point is the most valid point to address the worries. Having the FU money enables one to have the alternative options. If the work environment is too toxic, one can choose to leave at any point of time. Even if one is still in the work environment, the cushion provided by the FU money will make the feeling positive all the time. Of course, this is based on my perspective. <br /><br />One will need to keep the expense low and the FU money will be eventually be low with the assumption of 4% rule. As you have mentioned before, a single will have better chance of FI than married personels. I agree that the married personels can also achieve likewise the same results as long as he/she adopts the same approach i.e. keep the expense low and save as much as FU money as possible. This will include eliminating the unneccessary purchases ad adopting a minimalist lifestyle.<br /><br />BenWTKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459028978258841179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17478547.post-1695336502289043802018-07-04T10:22:10.560+08:002018-07-04T10:22:10.560+08:00Pop me a private email.
