I'm following the boomer "Freedom 55" plan

I've always saved money but was investing in mutual funds with really high fees, I've since switched them over to a self directed fund, now they're mostly in low MER ETFs, I also play around with a few stocks. My main investment is of course my union pension in which I have about 200K USD and it grows fairly well, have had a few double digit years since I've been contributing over the past 13 years. As of now I can retire in 18 years when I'm 55, which is basically my plan. I like my job especially since I relocated to Vancouver, spending days off in such a nice place and working in the BC north and interior is amazing, the only real downside is that it's quite expensive. My condo in Edmonton, which I'm trying to sell but will probably end up keeping for awhile longer, will be paid off around the time I'm 55, I'll be kicking my ass for the rest of my life for not buying a condo in Van ten years ago and instead opting for Etown, I'd have a condo that was twice as much as I paid instead of one that's worth 20% less, FML. It'll be interesting to see what 3rd world dumps will be the hot spots for old poon hounds, I'm looking forward to doing viagra every day and dying of cirrhosis of the liver.
