I voted never. But I'm really hoping for 60. Maybe 62 if there is still Social Security and its attendant requirements to worry about. 

No way will we have enough money when we're 50, unless something awesome (lottery winnings) or awful (parents' deaths and inheritances) happens.

According to plan, I'll likely stop after #2.

I may go back part time after both go to school, but we'll see.

as early as I can swing it. likely late 50s, depending on investments 401K, and social security.

I like being a dual income family because we are much more comfortable, and can really enjoy ourselves while still adding to our savings monthly. I also like working, despite the stress. realistically I could be a SAHM right now, but we'd have to watch our spending a lot more.

this.  i've been investing in an ira since i got out of college.  i could sahm, but i would rather work and we would rather have more money to spend.  happier parents, happier baby.  well, until the sullen teenage years.

ASAP LOL ..when we move to SA  there are plans to start a business there and then work until we are able to hand it off to management.and FI will work on his art..realistically who knows how long that will be.I'm guessing around 40.

If I keep doing what I'm doing, I'll probably still be at it to some extent until death. There are a group of old ladies who come into the store every Monday to do crafts together. They're so cute and funny.

A part of me still wants and actual career-type job. I like having the luxury of not having to work, but I think I would also like having the luxury of an extra paycheck that we could spend on totally frivolous stuff.

I'm planning to head back to work, but it may not be paid.  I'd like to see DH retire to something less stressful in his 50's.  He stresses about money constantly so I doubt he'll ever retire though.  He doesn't believe me when I say we are ahead of a lot of people our age.  Oh well.
