What do you plan to do once you hit age 50? Unless you go into management or become a top 1% giga-staff-principal engineer, you are FUCKED.
I am only 34 but I'm trying to plan ahead. Luckily I didn't fall for the marriage meme or the mortgage meme. I live with my parents and drive an econobox (that I will have to upgrade soon, roads are too unsafe). I am not sure if I could retire early with my savings, especially with how unstable the world is.
