About Early Retirement

Early retirement refers to the practice of retiring from work before the age at which one is eligible to receive full retirement benefits. This is typically earlier than the age of 65, which is the age at which most people become eligible for Social Security benefits in the United States.

There are many reasons why people choose to retire early. Some people want to pursue other interests or hobbies, while others may want to travel or spend more time with family. Others may retire early due to health issues or to care for a family member.

In order to retire early, you will typically need to have saved enough money to support yourself during retirement. This may involve saving a larger portion of your income, investing wisely, and potentially taking on additional work or income sources in order to build up your retirement savings. It's important to carefully consider the financial implications of retiring early and to seek the advice of a financial advisor or professional if you are considering this option.
