Take out your retirement early. Live on it for 5 years and then back to the grind for 5. Live your best life and die with zero not a million.

In that 5 years your industry would have left you behind :( unfortunately. Unless you do the type of job that allows this style of living but afaik, it's not tech.

That was great advice for the '00s and '10s but is absolutely insane advice in 2026.
