I'm 25 and doing the same thing. Although rather different situation probably. I worked out of highschool doing residential construction. Bought a 2 unit flat and then went to college. Now I'm in school, getting rental income and some financial support (utilities and insurance) from my parents while I'm a full time student. Picked up a relaxed part time job and do Lyft when I feel like. I put Essentially all of that income into individual stocks. I also don't do much that requires money. I just game and study. I try and live like a college student even though I'm far better off than most of my peers. All with essentially the same goals as you. I want to travel while I'm still young and retire early while picking up profitable hobbies like gardening or something. I'd like to tend to a small farm in retirement I think.
