I realised more and more people in their 60s and 70s are dying especially those highly stressed executives. I've decided to retire from salaried work as soon as I can. I am now in my early 40s and will target to retire by 55. This will allow me to travel the world for holidays (not work) while I'm not too old and still healthy. I think I deserve to retire at 55. If I die at 70, at least I have 15 years to travel the world and do things which I never had time for. I've worked very hard all my life from childhood till now. I worked very hard in school, in Uni, in my career until today. By the time I retire at 55, my passive income will be sufficient to cover my household expenses and travels. I've paid off my 3 bedroom condo unit mortgage and I'm debt free. I also have decent cash savings.
