My wife (32) and I (35) are very burnt out from our decent paying tech jobs. Want to sabbatical/coast/LeanFi
We are so burnt out we want to move to her home country Cambodia and just chill, it costs $1k a month there for both of us and we have free housing.
Overall: $870k NW, heavy real estate
Rentals $1.2k a month passive income after expenses
- 5 doors, $1.5M worth/ $1M mortgages ($500k equity)
$150k liquid - cash, stocks
$150k retirement
$70k house in Cambodia which we will live in and turn into an airbnb that will make ~$600 a month, conservatively
Plan is to keep pushing until Feb '27 - get our rentals buttoned down tackling big expenses. Keep a room in her parents house in the US for free.
Things are thin, expenses = passive with little buffer, but we could both contract or do something on the side and building slow equity/appreciation from rentals.
Feels like throwing it all away but after a decade in tech, we are tired boss.
Am I crazy? Because I think I will be if I stay put.
