When should I quit my day job ?
I have a corporate job with health benefits and and decent pay into 6 figures. I have been building a rental portfolio of mostly single family homes which is now debt free. I am just wondering when did others cut the cord. I am only 2 1/2 years from collecting a pension of about 36 to 40 % of job income. The rental income is higher than the corporate job income.

@Mark Papale You've made it this far, suck it up for another 2 years and get that nice check every month.
