Retiring Jan1, 2026 at 55y/o

$1.5mil 401k, $3.9mil in ESOP, $800k in tax free funds, and a mil in assets w/o one red cent of debt.

Started on an ambulance at 20y/o, sacked away 15% then 25%, ESOP came around in 1993, put away extra after tax cash, had some fun along the way, took a couple promotions but never into the executive suite, but nothing reckless, no kids, never mortgaged ourselves to death. Have a 2026 Corvette Z06 on the way, life’s good, it’s all about choices.
