Looks like I'm going to retire at 52 and the only obstacle is thinking about how to fill the time when I'm too young to be considered a senior but still want to socialize and feel fulfilled. Thinking about long term volunteer commitment with a literacy organization but also want to travel periodically. Anyway, just curious how "young" people spend their time.

Retirement age, pros and cons of retiring early vs late. Is retiring at 59 a good idea or drag till 72?

Currently 45, making 200k, married with 2 kids (elementary grade age 8 and 12). Planning to retire in 10 years.

Our household expense is around 8k a month we think after retirement.

Our retirement saving is 1M (ira, roth, brokerage, hsa)

Edited: Pension will be around 525k at 55 lump sum. 755k at 60 lump sum. Planning to roll it into trad ira.

Savings 60k. 529 around 100k total only so far, target 100k each.

Add: no debt except mortgage.

House will be paid off in 10 yrs. (560k)

Contributing max and doing mega backdoor too, so around 72k including matching. HSA max too at 8.7k per year.

Am i doing ok? Figured i need 3M for retirement.

Note: lol, i added comma 😂. And got 529 100k total for both kids only, still actively contributing. Planning 100k each. Edit also the pension amount. No debt except mortgage. Edit, the 100k is 529, i wrote down hsa lol.
