Any dream of owning a home, having retirement, even a career after a couple years when it’s clear I’m over the hump. I’m trying to squeeze as much as I can before that happens and squirrel it away so at least I can have a van down by a river.

What does squirreling it away mean though? A pile of cash instead of investments? The reality is that you don’t get to throw in the towel.

SPY/VOO/land with a river for the van. Probably working at the local Shell or 7-11
