I really hate working, im trying to retire young... Just gotta make a million first.

A million? What do you do with it?

My advice: take as much as you need, not as much as you want.

1. Home. Most important asset. If you can customize it near perfection, do it. A garden to work when retired is awesome. Just make sure you have everything you need, from nails and hammer to some redundant power, heating and water supply. Buy water filters and yes, survival gear also. Not in the event of zombie apocalypse but for natural disasters.

2. Car. Buy a decent car, one that doesn't consume much fuel. You don't need an Audi TT. But you may want it...

3. Health money. Do regular, yearly checks of your health and family's

4. Emergency. Keep some money for emergency. Silver, bitcoin and cash, bank accounts. Think carefully of the proportions.

5. Start a small business or project. One does not simply retires without doing anything. You have to work to maintain physical and mental health. Even if you do pro bono work.

Don't be like the lotto millionaires that are poor in 2 years again.
