How big was your stash when you RE'd?

(1/17) > >>

BBub:
Just curious to hear from those who RE'd.  How big was your stash when you made the leap?  If you're planning to actually RE within the next year, please feel free to chime in as well.

Financial.Velociraptor:
<500k if we are talking liquid networth.  A little over 500k if you want to include illiquid assets, especially my paid off primary residence.

DoubleDown:
I included the guesstimated value of a future federal pension since it offsets the amount of a stash that is needed.

Exflyboy:
Didn't include the value of pension ($42k a year 6.5 years from now)

Retired To Win:
I didn't go by how big my stash was.  I went by how much passive income it would throw off.  That was between $25,000 and $30,000 a year.  (My basic living expenses are $15,000 a year... and dropping.)
