I'm 40.
I take home $38K/year.
I have$30K in savings.
I want to retire in 10 years.
What do I do to make this happen?
I also plan to try to max out a Roth IRA every year til then. Any tips on how to set that up for max profit?
Thanks.

Not possible.
With $300k in the market you could maybe make like $10k to $20k in yield.
That doesn’t seem like it’ll happen with your income. Sorry but what are you doing? I made more than that at 24 with a lib arts degree.

I have a medical degree and work in direct patient care. My field is going to shit, probably because we don't prescribe pharmaceuticals.
I work long hours with a commute.
It's making me want to die. I can't afford to flat out quit. But I don't want to be doing this in 10 years. I just want to relax.
I'd like to be able to go to part time, but to do that and maintain my income, I'd have to make like $40/hour. I don't see that happening.
I just don't want to work so many of my life's hours away any more. It's horrible.

I don't want to dox myself, but it is in physical rehabilitation. CMS and the federal government cut our reimbursement ceilings deeper every single year which means that wages in the field cannot grow as most clinics are losing profit because of it. Again, this is due in part to pharma lobbying with way more resources and making gains while probably paying under the table to slash ours so that we cannot be as effective and they can scoop up more life long customers. Health care in the US is fucking FUCKED.
And I'm burnt out. I love what I do, I really believe in it, I and it's not all about money (though I could stand to make more), but I can't take doing it 40 hours with a commute any more. I need to cut my time or get out early. I'm fucking dying here.

I think a lot of you are missing that OPs take home is 38k, presumably post all expenses and taxes and responsibilities and people to take care of
In ten years that’s 410k in savings of OP saves all of it

To help, you should look at being able to achieve enough money each year during retirement to maintain a life style you deem you can afford

A solid online business could be helpful but investing in shitcoins will guarantee nothing. His annual pay is low and he probably should get a better job and possible invest in future tech like in-car VR tech which is beginning to change the narrative of car entertainment or add coding to his career which may not still give him the desired retirement timeframe.

You're not retiring in a 1st world country, that's for sure. Save up another 17k a year, then move to one of the shitter parts of the Philippines and you can retire to a lower middle class life.

Real answer Op, assuming you make around $50k if you can live off $17k a year somehow and invest the rest you can retire in around 10 years

If you want real solutions to achieve that goal that doesn’t require making more money then your best bet is to work remotely if you can on that income and live in third world

It is the most niggerish jew strategy to allow oneselves the exclusive right to handle the mass populations retirement money. You allow a large portion of the world's wealth to funnel through you by way of regulation and, should I say, tax penalty. You are the goyim on the outside, and you only have a reciprocal jew chance of ever really making it. You will work a miserable job saving shekels until you are too old and decrepit to do much of anything. By then you are discarded and forgotten, perhaps your name etched in stone that someone visits for a couple decades, and then, lost; forgotten. In the meantime, come to /biz and gamble on jesheetcoins and contemplate suicide on /b to continue your miserable shitposting life.
