Retiring or retiring from IT ?
Thank you very much London contract rates, wife earning good money and property boom.
I always wanted to stop working at 35, and I will. Will prob play a lot of golf and tennis.... I am very skilled at being lazy.Comment

I'd like to retire at 45. or at least semi retire. (I'm nearly 33 now)
House paid off at 40 (max - more likely to be 37/8).
5 or so years to plough money into various schemes.
My other half's a contractor too, so we reckon we could scurry half a mil away between us in 5 years, which woud be very nice.
It might not be enough to completely retire...but it might take us down to working say 3 months of the year.
It depends obviously on how greedy we get, and/or if we have kids.The pope is a tard.Comment

Plus a bit of money in the bank. No mortgages of course.

Don't you feel terribly guilty that you financially raped the UK, sold some muppet a pup at the top of a property bubble, and won't be giving back to the UK like a proper immigrant?

see what is possible if you take your shoes off!The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
