Most Americans wait until their 60s to retire, according to the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College. Peter Adeney hung up his hat at the tender age of 30.
Since he left the workforce in 2005, the former software engineer has helped ignite the Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) movement, primarily through his blog, Mr. Money Mustache. There, he offers advice on investing, spending consciously and reducing waste that he says can help people set aside 50 percent to 75 percent of their income to build an extra-long-lasting retirement nest egg.
