250k Savings & Exhausted

Worked like a dog for years. 250k(AUD) savings. 30, male, white, Australia, Engineer.

No debt. No assets (other than car and belongings). No shares etc.

I can't work anymore, I want the ride to end.

What Can I do?

go long on AMD

How did you save so much

Saving every penny. Working on an above average wage (80kish). Delayed Gratification. Australian Housing market is fucked.

Move to another country preferably a developing economy and put all your money in high interest term deposit say 8% and live happily since you already are frugal this shouldn't be tough

Forgot to add that NT gaming licences are $20k too if you wanna stay in aus

Surprisingly good advice.... Cheers mates

250k isn't enough to auto-ride to the finish line, you'll have to risk with investments

How good is 140k AUD in Sydney?

Currently considering a job offer.

UKfag here.

*considering that against £55k back here (Cambridge)

Good

You will be bored as fuck. 30 hours a week is far better than neetlife.

Learn grant writing. Volunteer at a non profit you support to get experience for a year. Be instantly employable at almost any non profit on a part time basis and be able to work remotely.

Why Curacao?

Get a job that pays less that you like more. Throw that 250k in the bank and divide it up by how long u plan on living.

Use it to give yourself a vacation.

Im 30. Usa. Little debt and assets.

I wanted to jump off mr. Bones ride this year.

I wont even get into it. But dont kys man.

U gotta make a daily and concious effort to be happy.

You get hurt and cant work or u just sick of killing it? I used to work hard brother. Never got me shit bit the job of 2 people and pay of 1. Through dumb luck i got a deacent paying fuckoff job a 1 week vacation every 6 months.

Finally happy until i can retire.

Try peer to peer lending

Come to the USA and live on less. Broads here love the accent anyway.

Just look how things worked out for Heath Ledger. Academy award winner.

Because an IOM licence would be almost half of OP's budget.

An NT Gaming licence about a year to process, but the advantage is you can advertise in Australia.

IOM is expensive but allows you to advertise in Europe.

It really just depends what you're after.

Fuck I'm 33 in Melb and I only have 82k saved...fuck my life.

I've been trying to save for a deposit for YEARS now by living frugaly and everyone around me is trying to get me to buy an investment property...this country is fucked, if the housing bubble ever pops we are really fucked.

take a mini retirement, naval-gaze, try some random shit and see what appeals. I have a place in Lombok I'll rent you for 1000$/year if you want to take a while.

If it pops you'll be able to afford a house, doofus

And hopefiully our economy will have stagnated to almost 0% interest loans.

Lock it in eddy!

36, M, Sydney and going nowhere... Just waiting...

>India
By that time they'll be in Africa. They're going to Phillipines as we speak. Ask me how I know

Wagecuckery is a dead end

House prices/rent are high as fuck in Sydney, not sure how that compares to the UK but look into it.

Ask if you can go on a sabbatical, put 200k into something fairly reliable (maybe AFIC or ARGO shares), go and live in Thailand or some other cheap place for a few months to get away from it all/reassess your life.
