Retire at 60

$600,000 should bring in $50,000 a year invested in an index fund.

Without rent, and if you live modestly, it's more than enough, coupled with CPP.

Talk to a financial planner and have a plan done, instead of posting on a pooner board and listening to a bunch of hobbyists

Try to get a fee only one.
Unfortunately, in Canada, fiduciary duty is not mandatory. Sadly, not every investment advisor will act in the best interests of their clients. That means you need to do your research before you decide to hire them.

And if they don't sell any financial products, how do fee-only planners get paid?

Quick question. If your house is paid off is $600,000 enough to retire at 60.

I retired at 57. The universe is 26 billion years old. I didn’t want to spend my minuscule part of it sitting at a fucking desk.

To answer a few questions. Yes I’m married,I still have three years till I’m 60, we’re planning on selling our house for around 900,000 and buying a smaller one for around 600,000 and I will be taking my cop at 60. As far as my financial advisor has given me some advice but it’s always good to hear from someone who has actually retired at 60.
