I can retire at full pension in 12 years, but don't have to retire for 22 years, which is a nice luxury to have these days.
That is what I did, pull it out last year with hefty profit and then paid for the DBA in accounting in full. If I would have left it one more year(until recently), I would have lost about +/- 50% of it.
That's what you get for having too much money Vini. if you were poor like me you wouldn't have any money to lose....
