Yes, it is a commitment we have to make, short term sacrifice for long term gain. We are not too concerned about what others think, we just tell them this is our early retirement strategy. As for the investment we are not too worried of the capital values but rather the dividend amount. In fact in a bad year, it would be a bargain to buy high dividend yield stocks.

it is not just the things u give up. it is how others will perceive you.
as for investment... there r no sure bets. forget what all post are saying about 4% etc... the truth is more like 12% on good year , flat for 2 yrs ... etc
hence timing is impt.
all the best . dont forget insurance
