You want to hit your number by age 35 but you still need to work for 15-20 years? Does not compute?

Just used an arbitrary range to convey "a significant amount of time". Didn't want to give away my age on here, heh. I've got a few years in the industry under my belt, but by no means nearing retirement anytime soon.

Also to be clear, I probably wouldn't stop working if I hit my number - I would probably just work on different things or have a more flexible on/off work schedule.

Also remember, luck is an important piece of it, so if you've got some to spare, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.

I think I've officially used all mine up, but it's out there!
