I think it's a very personal decision and what works for one person may not for another. The most important thing I think when retiring early is to stay somewhat active (physically and mentally) and watch the drinking, if you are a drinker. Very easy to let that get out of control when you have zero responsibilities. My mom died suddenly and unexpectedly at 50 and her father at 60 (after having just semi-retired) - those 2 things were big motivators for me to retire early. Life is indeed short, and you never know when your time is up. That said, I have huge respect for those that love what they do and want to keep on doing it. Everyone's situation is unique.
