For me, retirement looks like not having to work for money to live. Right now I maximize my money coming in and try to minimize the work that I do. Eventually I will be able to work / help people without requiring money for that work. Then I will be free to teach spirituality, tutor math, physics, programming, and offer massages to help people destress. I would also love to travel. Maybe I will be able to retire in 5 years at 50. My younger brother retired at 41. I’m slightly jealous but mostly happy for him.
For now, I will keep working and I wish all financial freedom as soon as possible.

I love this. I think helping others is the most fulfilling thing we can do with our energy. You have a lot of great knowledge to share. What keeps you from focusing on sharing that stuff now?

By 6pm, after work I am pretty tired. I eat dinner and spend time with my son until 9pm. Then I have an hour or 2 to do whatever I want (usually gaming or a movie). Then the cycle repeats the next day. The weekends I have more time to help. Sometimes I try to help local groups but usually I plan a day trip and take the family somewhere. Sunday I go to music/message/meditation at a local service. Then I enjoy my Sundays relaxing. I guess I could try to do tutoring or helping in some way then, but I am too lazy. I feel like I will be able to help out more when I am not working Monday through Friday.
