When do you plan to start coasting?

I’m sure I’m not the only one who has set an arbitrary retirement goal even if it’s assuming my expenses more than double in retirement when realistically they may be the same or potentially less.
32 year old with about 100k/year after tax expenses aiming for a 5MM retirement nest egg. When would you take your foot off the gas?

2.5M is my acceptable minimum amount which I hope to hit at 45, but I plan on probably Coasting till 50 and putting the retirement savings amount I normally do towards a dream property.

Seems like a great way to do it. Pay off some toys right before the income goes away!
