Early retirement is a good idea but we must prepare everything from now on so when the time come, we will not feel difficult to pass on our lives. The more source of income that we can have, the more better our live so we don't have to bother with how to fills our daily needs plus other expenses when we are old.
We have our option how we want to do so it is better if we thinks what we can do when we are still young. So when the old time comes, we will not regret it.
The idea may be good but it will be a little difficult in the implementation process because when deciding to take early retirement, we should have prepared a much better life than before so that this step will not make things worse. If you start to stop working and how to make money at a time like that, this is a step that may need to be prepared carefully and I personally prefer to decide to work while I am still productive enough to make money at work.
No one can predict life in the future so having a job can provide a little certainty to fulfill a much better life. Early retirement is much harder when someone faces financial problems later in life and the effects may extend further to more crucial matters.
