Unless you’re talking about FIRE, no: the oldest millennials are in their early 40s and have two decades to go before traditional retirement age.

I think early 40s is a fine time to retire, if you don’t have to support your children and you’re in a dual income situation.

If you’re that 1% super elite CS student, then sure you can retire at forty. The rest can’t even if they are child free.

That’d probably only work if you met your SO immediately when you began working, and you both had the same money plan.

Otherwise it’s probably not enough saved money to support 2 people, only 1 (edit until the later 40s)

My wife and I make similar money and created a 20 year plan 20 years ago, we won’t be rich, we just won’t have to work. Think living off $4k a month for two people for life.
