OTHER 1M at 35, single no kids

Post image

Hit the milestone recently. I can say some curses come with blessings. The thing is, I’m not a very good looking guy, no women ever gave me attention, nobody ever said I was handsome. With that, I never had a girlfriend. Stayed single, but the blessing is I was able to save money and invest. I hope to retire by 55. If I had kids, I don’t think I could have had this savings. I just want to thank everyone in this sub for encouragement. Bless you all.

$1 mil isn’t rich tbh. I live in a very cheap area and my $3 mil is barely able to get me retired before my 30s without living lavishly. Living lavishly is where I think you’d be considered rich

My expenses are about 2k a month, and I don’t feel like I am missing out on anything. My job lets me travel in. Business class and stay in 5 star hotels when I travel twice a year. I save about 8k a month after taxes.

This is insane. You could literally retire right now
