The time is short, O who can tell
How short his time below may be?
Today on earth his soul may dwell,
Tomorrow in eternity.

Hey guys, sorry for the late response and thanks for the input! Yeah my dream is to retire at 50, and have the FU money to exit the workforce comfortably if I'm able. I personally don't buy the saying that people go downhill after retirement, I know for sure I'll have ways to keep busy. Especially more so when I'm in better health (Imagine I'd be healthier in my 50's than at 67+). The reason for the 2M tag is because of the cost of living in Hawaii. Median home prices here are 1M, there's a price tag for paradise lol. I already own an apartment but my fiance wants to eventually live in a house, and especially once we have kids. Although I just recently came back from a surfing trip in Panama and it's awesome, has me considering being an expat somewhere else where the surf breaks are much less crowded
Haven't made many changes with the TSP account, been riding C until about a month ago switching to F (still there). This has to be the first time I've seen C and F go down at the same time, but because of the whole Fed getting ready to raise rates it makes sense. Probably should have went G instead, but my system was saying F. Have to follow it or else what's the sense of having one
Welcome back.
May the force be with us.
I've also heard and seen some amazing value down there in central america and the Caribbean. You risk getting hit by hurricanes every year in the Caribbean, so maybe central america would be better. But yea, you can get a nice house on the water for seemingly nothing compared to the states. Amazing value if you are healthy with no kids. Not sure if it is the best situation if you have young children and/or need consistent health care / doctor visits. Certainly something to consider, depending on the location. But yea, I definitely look those places up and day dream about them from time to time!
In GLD today @181.30, still in the F fund on my TSP acct
TSP account switching to C
