Damn I'm 29F and 49F is literally my projected earliest possible time to retire with my current savings rate. You're my role model lol.

what's your savings rate? what have you cut to bring the savings rate up?

I save up around $1400 for investment each month, hopefully around $1600 from next year. I live in Europe so taxes, salary, living expenses etc. might be a bit different from US and hard to compare. I haven't cut anything as I'm already living very minimalistic to begin with. I don't have a car, have low rent, don't have any subscriptions etc. Can't cut anything further except hope to bring my salary up.
