What rings your retirement bell, a dollar amount or a set date?
« on: February 23, 2014, 04:54:17 PM »

For those not yet FI are you counting down the days to a specific date when you will walk away from your 9-5 or is it a dollar amount you are hoping to obtain? Or is it a certain number of properties etc?
