How do you find yourself not saving enough for early retirement when you are saving $8k per month? Only a a tiny fraction of your condo is being consumed within a month. Far less than 8k.

I'm with you there. You can sell a condo to collect your $600k or whatever in equity, go buy a normal house in a normal city, and retire on $40k a year between that and your other savings.

My guess is that the maligned commenter I replied to is of the other school of thought, that they want to retire in the same house in the same town
