Yes, I have been following him for some time. He inspired me to begin saving even harder than I was already naturally predisposed to. My savings rate is nearly eighty percent these days, so we're quite close. This calculator gives me a year based on rough numbers, which is about what I had calculated. I will probably engage in the standard one-more-year thing to make things even more certain.
