But in my experience, that traditional timeline isn\u2019t always the reality. In fact, for many people, retirement may be much closer than they realize. After nearly 20 years of building retirement plans, I\u2019ve noticed a recurring theme: Most people overestimate how much they think they need and underestimate how ready they already are. That\u2019s why in this episode, I\u2019m breaking down 7 signs that could mean you\u2019re closer to early retirement than you realize. These aren\u2019t about chasing some arbitrary savings target\u2014they're practical, real-world markers that can help you rethink your timeline and gain confidence in your next chapter.
