When Roshida Dowe was 39, she lost her job working as a consumer automotive finance lawyer in the California Bay Area. Instead of scrambling to find another job, she decided to take a year off to travel the world. Six months in, she was the happiest she had ever been and decided she was done with the workforce, so she decided to retire instead. With $660,000 saved up in investments and equity, it was just what she needed to start her FIRE journey and the next chapter of her life in Mexico City. Watch the video to learn more about how Roshida joined the FIRE - or “Financially Independent, Retire Early” - movement.

I initially planned to retire at 62, working part-time while saving money. But steep price increases have disrupted my plan. I wonder if those who experienced the 2008 financial crisis had it easier than my current situation. The declining stock market has lowered my income, and I'm worried that my reduced contributions will leave me with insufficient retirement savings.

@PatrickFitzgerald-cx6io 3 месяца назад

It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

@Justinmeyer1000 3 месяца назад

I wholeheartedly concur; I'm 60 years old, just retired, and have about $1,250,000 in non-retirement assets. Compared to the whole value of my portfolio during the last three years, I have no debt and a very little amount of money in retirement accounts. To be completely honest, the information provided by invt-advisors can only be ignored but not neglected. Simply undertake research to choose a trustworthy one.

@bob.weaver72 7 месяцев назад

Rising prices have affected my intention of retiring at 62, working part-time, and building my savings. I'm worried about whether individuals who weathered the 2008 financial crisis found it less challenging than my current situation. The stock market's volatility, coupled with a reduced income, is making me anxious about having enough for retirement.

This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.

I retired at age 35 and also live in Mexico City...almost every day an American comes living in Mexico...what does that say about your country? USA is by far perfect, and if you are a person of color, you are better treated anywhere else on this planet. Straight facts. I lived in Asia, North America, Europe and now South America...people here are kind, open, and there is less stress if your income comes from abroad. You will be able to live a very good quality life. But Roshida said, Mexico City ain't cheap ! so don't come with a mentality that Mexico needs to obey to your life and rules...there are enough arrogant foreigners living here...learn Spanish first of all, integrate, mingle with locals ! Mexicans, not just expats ! Explore different neighborhoods/villages/cities outside the expat areas of Condesa, Polanco, Reforma and Roma...those areas are not a reflection of what Mexico stands for.

@BraianDeLeon 2 года назад

@@sophien5416 It depends where are you going to move. Sure, there are really dangerous places in Mexico but there are really safe places too. That's the first thing I would consider if I decided to move as a foreigner. Usually in little towns where everyone knows everyone else is more or less safe because of that. Nonetheless, recently we have seen an improvement in how the government is dealing with violence and I'm hopefully that in the near future we could have better circumstances. Maybe buying some land now will be a good option since it's cheap now but if things get better you would pay more for the same land. If that doesn't work well you can always get your money back.

Retired with a 7 figure portfolio and Receiving about $53k in dividends. I have been in the Stock market about 20 years. Am I worried? Am I selling? Absolutely not. I have purchased growth stocks too a little at a time over the past few weeks. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out, adding more at a time. my investment strategy actually calms me down. Eye on the prize, stay the course!

I just saw another video of a Hispanic guy my age who decided to move to Mexico and begin his life there with NBC. He's beginning there while you're "retiring" there. I really enjoyed this story of feeling and understanding how people are overworked in America. It's crazy how other countries are structured compared to us. I am actually planning on doing this as well. I have family in a small pueblo in Mexico and plan on making a small house there to retire early. Making a house is extremely cheap and I won't need to pay rent, but keep in mind that it is in a pueblito some might not be used to this lifestyle. My goal is to save just enough and like her story as well work there but in something I love and days that I want too. I can also obtain a dual citizenship in Mexico because of my parents which would make things much easier. Just wanted to share. Some people might be in the same boat as I am.

Not bad for a 79 years young retiree. USA became too expensive and deadly for me, so I called 1-800 Got Junk and had my entire two bedrooms emptied, and I did not have junk. They charge $800 per truck with 2 men, and I needed 4 and one half trucks with 10 men, and it took 6 and one half hours.

Middle class these days is actually pretty poor, especially in CA. Anything below $100,000 a year is tough. I make up to $50,000/yr in CA, but I have to live with family in order to survive. Rent for me is much cheaper than the going market rate. Plus, it enables me to save for investments. If I didn’t have family to live with, I would have to move to a cheaper state.
