motordavid - I see stories like this all the time. What is missing in these stories is the details. Okay so you bailed at 53, are you willing to share some numbers? How much did you have total? How much do you pull a month? When do you expect your savings to run out? Do you own a house (owning cost money and typically increases every year)? Did you have to change your lifestyle or do you live the way you did before retirement?

I am a saver also. My 401k is almost maxed out and my company matches 25% unlimited. If I can keep this up I should be able to walk away earlier than 65-67.
