I've came across this website thru Kiplinger's Personal Finance and thought you would like to read it. The couple retired at the age of 38 and had over $500K in savings. They invested in low-cost index funds and lived off of $24K (after taxes) a year by traveling all over Asia, Caribbean, Mexico, and South America. Currently (after 15 years), they are still doing what they love. After reading this article, I was so fascinated by their strategies and would love to do nothing but travel. Life is so short and we should enjoy it. Unfortunately, I have 2 toddlers to put thru college before I start this adventure.
