So why is Early Retirement THE objective?

Why force yourself, and get stressed about achieving RETIREMENT funds, so that you can do nothing after that?

Why not pace yourself before and after, and spread out the stress?

Because the rat race is MORE stressful than that.

Do what you love to do and you won't feel you are in any race.

Luckily for me that my work&business is stress free & no traffic jam in Ipoh but not as convenient as in KL and all the lifestyle/happenings can be had there.

Financial independent is easy to achieve when single but with 2 kids, probably after they finish their studies unsure.gif

Actually I have been in an industry that I have passion for. But trust me, if it's not a western country, this statement would never stand true. Period.
