I think I'm getting there soon...

I’m a single man in my 40s, planning to start LeanFIRE within 4 years, before turning 45. My net worth is around $550k, and I own a paid-off car.

In 3 years, I’ll be eligible to start collecting a retirement pension of about $3k per month. My current minimum monthly expenses are around $2.5k, which covers rent, insurance, food, internet, and other essentials.

After retiring, I plan to store my stuff in a storage unit and travel around SEA for 1–2 years to save money while traveling, as the COL is too high in the States. Hopefully, by the time I return to the U.S., housing will have become more affordable.
