I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” - Robert Frost quotes (American poet, 1874-1963)
Nothing changes except spend more time reading forum.
look to increase it further.
I will read my favorite chinese novels like what I did when I was waiting for my GCE O level result back in year 1993. A fine brew chinese/red tea will go along smoothly with a retro Miss Deng's song.
when u have 10k you want 100k
when you have 100k you 200k
when you have 200k you want 400k
when you have 400k you want 800k
when you have 800k you want 1.6m
when you have 1.6m you want 3.2m
when you have 3.2m you want 6.4m
... then one day you suddenly realize you cannot live forever

I was just offered a JOB again, terms : part time, just need to meet clients, that is....flexible hours...$ is unknown
Reasons for this offer : you are so wasted..must back to work and easier to pass time..and make yourself back to the social network again...
Well, going to turn it down next week........
Don't say this too early hor. You not married yet right?Originally Posted by roly8
Spend my passive income by living 3 mths in middle earth and tuscany
Spend more time doing charity work
Would like to serve as a church pianist in 乐龄. Spend a few months a year in Australia, USA & UK staying with my immediate family members
The best thing is to do is to start the lifestyle you want now instead of waiting for the passive income target......Originally Posted by roly8

3 months break, 6 months contract, 3 months break, 6 months contract, ...
contract income will be additional $$$ to enhance the retirement pot
Been semi-retired for over a year... my typical weekday is to send the kids to school, then to exercise with wifey and then breakfast. Trade a bit here and there occassionally and hope to get free dinner hahaha
Actually was planning to do some charity work but then still haven started yet... ashamed
And of coz read this forum
When you have eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth
Maybe before that I'll buy one landed over at Iskandar first.Originally Posted by roly8
Every month I have about RM12500 to go Jalan Jalan.. sometimes will visit S'pore over the weekend
I shall do my passion work, travel and keep a dog

Got to keep the brain active to grow the dendrites even thought with passive income to service lifestyle.

Will pay off all debt by then as next crisis will make many ppl bank slaves forever
Since my family has lands and house at Johor nothing to worry

- Grand Canyon ... this one not for the faint-hearted
- Yosemite NP - very nice and relaxing ... day trek to half dome
- Ladakh area in India
... many others e.g. Sikkim, Valley of the Flower, Manali, NZ around Milford Sound area, Greek Islands ...

IMO .. best time to retire is after menopause ... ladies obvious ... guys will be guesstimate
Your body already sends a signal to u ... better slow down and enjoy life while u can lah
