The article discusses the journey of a Reddit user in the 'Fire' community, who set ambitious financial goals at 21, aiming for early retirement around 55. By 30, they exceeded expectations, reaching an income of $160,000 and accumulating $300,000 in their 401(k). At 36, despite earning $130,000 due to a job loss, they have two properties and around $880,000 saved, totaling roughly $1.9 million in net worth. This highlights the importance of financial planning and goal setting for achieving independence.
By the time the Redditor turned 30, they had achieved an annual income of $160,000, allowing them to check this goal off their list.
It's perfectly normal for someone of 21 years of age to dream about where their life will be in 10, 20, or 30 years.
