When I retire, my full time job will be selling the **** I acquired pre-retirement.

A lot depends on the lifestyle you want to live. I think most people would be very happy if they could maintain pre-retirement lifestyle after they quit working.
The problem is that as your work income increases, your lifestyle typically does as well. Most don’t want to cut back when the income stops.

I hope to maintain the lifestyle I have. We also live pretty frugally right now and don’t try to keep up with the Joneses. Our house cost about 300k less than we could reasonably afford, our cars are paid off and we have negligible debt outside of mortgages. Those will be paid off long before retirement age. Or I hope.
