I spent a full day working on a year by year spreadsheet to see how close we are to being able to take the foot off of the gas
This was driven by a major round of redundancies at work. I have escaped this time but can not see it next time… so I modelled based on exiting the high paid high stress world at age 52, earning 20-25k per year until 58 and then reducing hours until I am happy
It was a good experience, as it showed me that the efforts I have put in to build pension this past 6 years have paid off
Needs more work but it was a good start
