Early retirement is actually still very possible but if indeed as long as we still want to live in luxury then indeed I don't think we will think about it from now on.

Early retirement is not as easy as imagined especially for ages that are still productive enough to make money because after all, apart from our lives including old age that must be considered here we must also realize that every human being has a condition where they are never satisfied with something and of course with the power of money now even though we can still be happy even without money but when we don't have money then it is certain that we will suffer so that in order to keep it from experiencing setbacks in old age, especially for financial problems, we need to support it by working or building a business so that in this case retirement will clearly be hampered.

But if you are sure enough with what you have now even though it is still productive age I think if you want to retire early then it can still be done. But I personally will not do that because I realize my journey is still long and do not want to stop at this age.

Early retirement is a very good thing for a salary earner to do but when doing it, truly, you need a very strong mindset, discipline, endurance, patience and dedication because you will go through a lot during the process. You will need to save part of your income no matter what. not only saving, but also try to invest it by settling down a business that you will go back to after the retirement. You can not have a lot of the things that you wish to have during the process. But just make sure you set up a fix goal to be accomplished.
Early retirement is also very good to your health, because, the more time you spend in the service, the older you become and the weaker your body systems become. Early retirement enables you to look after your family and mingle with your friends.
It gives you more time for yourself and you have time to exercise in the morning and evening. Which will boost your immune system.

But indeed in this case it depends on each other's perspectives too I think because after all there are those of us who really want to retire early but there are others who expect them to keep working according to the portion and time that they really set especially for those who are workaholics where their lives are only for work.

I personally am a person who really wants to retire at an age that is suitable for retirement because even though it is good for us to retire early but in the end it takes great consideration that we have to think about especially when we have families and dependents that we really have to think about.
Because in the end, retiring early is not as easy as we think considering that the economic conditions are getting more and more difficult, it seems that there must be some considerations and further thinking if you want to retire early.
