Hey everyone, I wanted to ask you all for any advice you have. Anything would be helpful and I would appreciate it. I'm currently 27 years old and I'm looking to retire and smell the flowers as soon as humanly possible. I was lucky enough to be born into a family that makes more money than they need, so they allow me to live with them rent/food free without any hassle. I've saved up 70k from work and have a 401k with 4k inside it (with a contribution every paycheck) and about 8k invested in Publix stock (Fairly good stock, Roughly quadruples every 20 years or so on a bad decade). My current plan is to skip the apartment phase all together and buy a house (Something around the 100k range) with a colossal down payment and add to my stocks after my finances settle down and I have a realistic idea of how much money I need each month. I save almost every penny I earn and I'm studying more about stocks and savings. I only make about 20k a year and am looking to retire around 45-50. I know it's big deal, but it's something I just really want to do and am putting 100% of my efforts into that, so any advice would mean the world to me. Thank you all in advance!
