When will you retire?

I really enjoy my career. Truly. Sometimes I think I enjoy it too much.
I love the challenge and I love the pursuit of knowledge it has put me on.

But guess what, it has been my goal, for some time, to be able to retire by 40. That is, to have accrued enough assets (businesses, real estate etc.) to completely cover all my expenses and then some with passive income. I think I will still be practicing dentistry in some form but perhaps only 2-3 days. Ambitious? Yes. Achievable? Definitely.

When will you retire?

    so if you’re able to retire by 40, i guess that would mean you’d still be doing pretty well by the time you were, oh, let’s say…80 or so?? i wish you all the luck in the world. :-)
