So what numbers do work in the UK? I'm from The Netherlands, and I also find that these numbers don't work for me. However, I have a spreadsheet with my own numbers and it shows I can retire about ten years earlier than the rest. And that's nothing to sneeze at.

No worries, those numbers don't really work in the US either.

He owns and rents several properties. Rentier activity like this pushes up housing costs.
