Jesse Kramer indicates he is 'in' on fully funding his children's college education, even if it means working two additional years before retirement. He explains his priorities have shifted towards enjoying his work and supporting his family, making the trade-off acceptable.
“I think I'm in for that one. Two years, right. I mean, whether it's, is it one year? Is it two year? Is it three years?”
“The idea is I'm at a point now where I enjoy what I do for work a lot. I think that helps. When I was an engineer and I first learned about the fire movement and I first learned about investing and all these cool things that we talk about, I was very much in a place where if I could pull my retirement in a year or two or five or 10, I was on board.”
“So I would trade... a couple years of working because I find them fun in order to help out my kids that way.”
