My husband is 37 (will be 38 this year) and I am 33. We have no children and good paying jobs (however, with little to no benefits). Our retirement greatly depends on health insurance costs. Our plan right now is for my husband to retire at 50 and we move permanently down to Florida at that time (depending upon how our parents are doing health wise). We currently have 4 rental properties that are good income producers and we do save quite a bit in IRA's (no pensions or 401k's). We plan on having all the houses paid off in the next 13 years. Then we'll move to our "forever home" in Florida (probably purchased in the next 10 years, but not paid off before we move). I plan on continuing to work full-time in Florida hopefully in a job with medical benefits (I'm a paralegal so I don't think it will be hard to find employment or I can freelance) while my husband works part-time doing whatever strikes his fancy. I plan on fully retiring (or working part time at a fun job) between 50-55 depending upon our financial outlook and when our "forever home" is paid off. At that time, we'll live off of the rent from the 5 properties that are paid off here and our other vacation-home-turned-rental property in Florida. We do plan on vacationing a lot between now and then (and during retirement), but we live very frugally otherwise.
A lot of unknown situations, mistakes, and catastrophes could/will happen between now and then, but that's our grand plan.
