Since I can live on much less than that, I should be able to either accumulate wealth or spend it on new ventures. If I could officially "retire" with a net worth of 7 figures before I'm 30, I can stop obsessing about work and move on to more interesting things, like some of the things in my "Life Goals" sidebar. -Erica Hi cmj,

My plan is to sell Simpli for at least $1 million (if not more!) $1 million at 10% interest is $100,000/year for the rest of my life. Since I can live on much less than that, I should be able to either accumulate wealth or spend it on new ventures. If I could officially “retire” with a net worth of 7 figures before I’m 30, I can stop obsessing about work and move on to more interesting things, like some of the things in my “Life Goals” sidebar.

You seem bright and intelligent and fun and a number of other things which are most benificial, but sometimes I think you focus on the pursuit of the green stuff a bit too much. On the other hand, that last post was a pretty inspiring story, so don't take what I say too seriously.
