    Hey Jake, thanks for the video, I totally agree :D Now I really enjoy spending time in the sun, nearly empty shops and public spaces. Like everyday is a holiday.. but just for us. Love exploring every inch of my city and surroundings without a rush. It's a pity my friends don't have such possibility. Are you planning to share with us some of your travels/hikes, maybe on different channel? Love the background videos, greetings from Poland

    The cruise and European vaca sounds cool. Last spring I saved my but off by working all the OT I could and took a 7 day tour of Israel in mid-August. That was a bucket list trip. This August is my 40th high school reunion so not traveling more than 300 miles to drive to Virginia Beach for the reunion. I am looking forward to the day when I can just get in my car with my dog and drive cross country. I am thinking of car camping in my Subaru Outback or buying a roof top tent.

      That sounds like a great way to celebrate early retirement. Driving around the us with your dog would be a lot of fun. I follow a guy on UA-cam who does that.

    another great video! I am so close to my first $100k in investments! Do you have a list of your videos a "beginner" should watch on your channel? I opened a M1 account after watching some of your videos and if you have any videos that show how to use M1 that would be great! I like the M1 "pies" interface, so I am looking forward to using it, but I am not sure how to start when it comes to making a "dividend growth" pie. Thanks!

Having the ability to spend time as I want with my family instead of the work grind is what I'm looking forward to the most. Have a great time with your family on your travels.

    One of the biggest concerns for i and wife is whats the best investing platform account that we can use to invest in and be able to access from aboard. for example migration to another country. how would we be able to get access to our accounts and live off the dividends?

    • @DividendGrowthInvesting
      @DividendGrowthInvesting  3 місяці тому +1

      Well if you go somewhere more permanent, you could get a local checking account. That is what I did while living in Germany. Otherwise, you can use your accounts from the US in other countries, e.g. ATMs charge a small fee. Credit cards with no foreign transaction fees are great. We live in a digital world now :)

    On Friday evening I went out for dinner with 2 mixed couples, American men + German wives, and other German friends of them. I was asking one of the American men if he wanted to go back to live in the USA The answer was NO. His wife told me they lived in Montana for several years and they went back to Germany because they were exhausted, just work, work, work all the time. He told me that, from his point of view, everything was better in Germany, the food, the education of his 2 sons, holidays, healthcare, etc. John, the second American man, who has been retired for a while, agreed with him.
    We were in a restaurant in Bernkastel-Kuess enjoying the good weather and some classic cars.
    You should come to the Mosel Valley one day and visit all the hidden gems here.

    Great video Jake. Kind of centers me listening to you just talk about your plans and the “small” things that make F.I. worth making the sacrifices for. I’m so damn close and I’m starting to make plans for the day that I actually step away. A lot of excitement but also a lot of anxiety about the unknown afterwards. Was this the case for you at all? It probably helped that you were let go from your job so you didn’t have to quit but I imagine that there was still a bit of initial anxiousness? It’s one thing to dream about it but it’s a whole other thing to actually do it.
    Also, I love that you mentioned H-E-B 😂 If HEB ever goes public, I’m in! Best grocery store hands down. The BBQ, the tortillas, the produce! Top notch! Outsiders are excited about visiting a gas station (Buccees) so surely grocery stores can get hyped up too 😂

    • @DividendGrowthInvesting
      @DividendGrowthInvesting  3 місяці тому

      lol buccees and HEB are the best!!! Oh i'm right there with you when it comes to the anxiety that comes with quitting or making the change from working full time to reaching FI. I don't think the anxiety will ever fully go away. All you can do is prepare the best you can and be satisfied that you did all that you could to prepare. I would say I wish I had a bigger cash reserve or emergency fund before reaching FI. I actually was planning on working 1 more year so I didn't get to have that cash buffer.. It is what is I guess.. Still happy where I'm at though and I'm sure you will be as well!

    This is why i want to become financial independed.
    Currently i'm sitting at home with a burnout because my PTO requests has been denied for three months.. so now i've paid-off sick leave for no idea how long while they could have had me gone for a week or two instead..
    I've got more money now since i ever had. But it slowly has to grow. Hoping to be somewhere financial well off in 10 to 20 years max.
