Remember, I'm operating under the assumption that the house is already paid off. Right now, I've got about $250K left in my mortgage. Property taxes aren't too bad, about $4K/year.

That $2M is also assumed to be after taxes from selling my options, but I acknowledge that any gains from the index fund will be taxed.

> But take a pro tip: health care costs add up.

Yeah, this is likely the expense I'm not planning enough for.

But also, as I said, I've got projects that could make money. Also, my wife has stated before that she wants to work to avoid boredom, so she'd keep working, though she'd cut her hours to work 2-3 days/week.
