"Never" :rofl:

My Road Map to Retirement ("Financial Freedom"):

At present: Trading stocks in my fathers account since January 2009. His entire account value is up 30% from yesterday's close but it fluctuates day to day. See chart below....

At present 2: Trading stocks in my own account...a little over 40% gain last year.....This year I am down a little due to sucking but my dad's account is rocking, unfortunately he doesn't tip me a dime.

2009: Find a job making over 35K (I just graduated, I am unemployed, I will be going for a master's degree in economics if I don't find a decent job...no rush yet)

2009-2020: Make a ton of money in the stock market on it's trip back up over the next 10 years

2009-2010: Sometime within next 6-18 months buy my first foreclosed home and rent it out or sell using gains from the stock market

2010:2015: Buy 2 to 10 additional foreclosed homes using money from work/stock market gains/proceeds from first foreclosed home/etc.

2016: Move out of my parent's basement

:rofl:

2030-2049. Both I and my employer contribute to my retirement account but I am not relying it. Who knows where that will end up. So I'm basically planning on savings, high yield market accounts, real estate and the enterprise of some steady income generating business to carry while spending most of my retirement in SO’s country... Think it'll work? :blink:
