Been playing with retirement for about 16 months now.
The fascinating thing I've realised is that the government can't tax the work you do for yourself & family.
- The food you grow
- The meals you cook
- The wood you chop
- The repairs & improvements to your house/vehicle
They can tax the things you buy but not the improvements you make with those things. It's a fraction of the cost you would incur if you outsourced the whole job.
It turns out that you need a small fraction of the "income" that you thought you needed when you had little time left for yourself.
