Yes, I no longer work for income and am living off of my investments. Eliminating debt, living below my means, and a variety of investment approaches (index funds, real estate, dividend-paying stocks) was probably the best advice I received along the way. As I settled into retirement, it shifted more towards withdrawal ideas and creating the optimal day to continue to be productive and healthy.
I'm new to your blog and enjoy the content. Most of the information I obtained to be able to retire in my early 50s came from a handful of the FIRE community posters, along with Dave Ramsey. I can't say that I agree 100% with any of those I followed, but I am grateful for them, and the information you and others provide.
