Yep, I have the same goal. If/when I manage to get to $600k (~12k p/year assuming 2% yield) I'll take 3 months totally off work of any kind, just recuperating, then another 3 months to plan out the rest of my life.

Isn't inflation 3% a year?
Don't depress me please :(
I still think 2% cash yield is reasonable. Say 5% gross, 2% to inflation, and 1% (1/3 of the remainder) to taxes. Leaves 2% to spend.
Why would you only have 2% yield?
