I recently quit nursing at 35. I am so happy now

I am 35 years old and single. I am a registered nurse.

Luckily I do have 1.4 million in net worth. All liquid aassets. I did well with my investment. My income didnt contribute to it very much.

I quit my nursing job that pays 32 dollars per hour about 3 months ago for some personal reasons. I have been in between jobs for 3 months.

I am just happy not working now..i didn't like forcing myself to go to sleep early when I didnt feel sleepy for work the next day. I hated waking up early for my work when i wanted to sleep more. I didnt like dealing with rude coworkers or patients and pretending being nice and cool. I just didn't like living my life around my work.

I am so happy now.

I go to gym for work out and I run and take a walk every day. I read books and study Spanish. And i meet up with friends and family.

I dont spend much money. Only less than 2000 dollars per month including utilities.. my net worth has grown since I quit my job.

I have been hunting for jobs ever since. I got job offers 3 times but declined them all of them. Because I didnt want to get into daily grinds of spending my pricelss life and time at work and around my work...

My friends and family dont know I have money. So I just tell them I am in between jobs... i might eventually find a job of my cup of tea and start working.. but I might not do so..i might not get back into the workforce for a while.. maybe forever.

I dont know where my life is going but I am so happy.

I hope i can get to 1.5 million dollar by the end of this year so I can just retire early.

Nurse 35yo 1.4M. I feel lucky my job doesnt pay me well so I can retire early.

I am 35 years old. Single. Registered Nurse. My net worth is a little south of 1.4 million.. all liquid assets..

I recently quit my job and am enjoying my free time. I am not sure if I am going back to the workforce or not but I have no plans to do so for a while.

I recently saw some post where people ask how much they make. There were so many people with high salary. So I got so envious of them. Because I only get paid 33 us dollars per hour as an RN. I wish i made more than 100k per year like so many others.

But at the same time, I felt lucky. Because my job doesnt pay well, I have no intention of going back to work anytime soon. I just want to retire without working any more if my Net worth continues to grow.

If i had a high paying job like doctors or lawyers or CEO, I am pretty sure I would have continued to work even if I have a lot of money like more than 10 million us dollars. Because I wouldnt want to miss out on a high salary. Yes I love money and I would like to work more for lots of money

But I dont make a lot of money. With 1.4 million under my belt, I feel like the hard work i have to put in is worth way more than 33 dollars per hour and I want to spend time doing what I like to do with the people I love.

I am very happy. I have been out of work for a few months already. It has been fantastic. I like that I dont need to commute to work. I hate to spend time on the road. I like that I dont need to force myself to sleep before going to work the next day. I love that I dont need to wake up early when I dont want to do so.

I even did travel to 3 countries in South america for 1.5 months recently. I spend less than 4k including a round trip ticket and accommodation but my net worth grew sharply during my trip.

My monthly expenses including health insurance is currently less than 2.5k per month. My monthly budgetl is 3.5k per month just in case.

With my low cost of living, early retirement is very doable for me.

If I really need money I will go to work probably once a week or sth but I dont need the money now. I am so comfortable.

I feel lucky that my job doesnt pay me well!

35 yo, crossed 1 million about 3 weeks ago!

I am a 35 years old.

Because I was able to do it, everyone can do it! Please live frugally and keep investing! And you will get there.

I hope to reach 2 million by age 40!

Registered Nurse, 35 yo, About to hit 1.1 million !

I crossed 1 million 20 days ago as I posted on reddit. I almost added as much as 100k after that. This is my first 100k after my first 1 million ! So meaningful for me! It took only 20 days! I cant believe this. It looks like money begets money very fast. I hope to get to 2 million by age 40! Lets see.

Crossed 1 million mark!

I am single, work in healthcare(RN). 35 years old.

My robinhood account finanally crossed 1 million! This is my taxable account! I have about 265k on my 401k and roth ira accounts.

I am so proud of myself.

I am planning to go part time very soon. Probably working only 20 hours per week.

For me, youth, time and health are way more important than making money and getting rich. This is why I wanted to cut down on hours.

I am planning to move away out of the US once I hit 2 million..

I think anyone can make it to million dollars because I did it as a normal average person.

Lets go!

I am on the verge of joining the 1 million club very soon!! I cant believe it.

I am in healthcare(RN) and 35 years. I am so stoked!

u/Ok-Afternoon6986 — 2 months ago

I cant believe this. I am about to hit 1 million dollar on my taxable brokerage account.

I hope to hit 2 million by age 40, 4 million by age 45 and 10 million by age 50.
