It got one drier. I quit in April (UK tax year). I wasn't earning 500k, 
but I reckon I have enough put away for the rest of my life.

It's a balance between running out of money, and running out of health :(

There was an article in today's paper about the growing number of people 
becoming economically inactive. Including early retirees. The tax system 
over here doesn't help much mind - it's discouraging when the government 
gets more of your earnings when you do.

And anyway ... why am I still reading this newsgroup? <g>
