Problem is, at least with the NYC metro area specifically, all the easy commutable areas outside the city where you can have like a real home are also insanely expensive for real estate. $2 million condo in Manhattan or $2 million McMansion in NJ/Westchester.
Agreed on the retiring though. Save that money up, after five years even if you're saving half you've got almost a million, and then just fuck off to Croatia or something.
