Wife and I both (early-mid 30s)want to RE and the goal is 55 for me and 57 for her as thats when pensions can be taken with zero penalty. Both our jobs offer retiree health benefits so as long as one of us gets there we are covered. My wife’s job is harder on her than mine so I’d love to be able to tell her she can quit in about ten years(mid 40s) and I go to 55 but I have my own health issues that make work harder than it used to be on me. Plus if I’m ever unable to keep working my company offers 60% of your salary at the time you become incapable of doing the job. That’s my lifeline to make sure this plan is successful no matter what
