you can retire about 5 minutes after starting a business that employs 1 person.

not coincidentally, this is how almost all early retirees do it.

Anything above inflation.
Growth is just a hedge against inflation. You retire by being frugal and not buying shit you don't need.

Seconded. It's all about burn rate.

Unless it's a lottery-type situation, most early retirees have to cut their expenses enormously and *keep them there* after retirement.

My plan is

- 30% rental property
- 60% index income
- 10% left invested

That way my wealth increases in real terms over time, despite early retirement

This. The thing the know about "extreme retirement" isn't that you get to retire "extremely" early -- it's that you get to live an "extremely" limited and crappy life.
