If anyone wants an extremely simplified "when can I retire given x expenses and y income" calculator, I threw together one here: https://html.non.io/simple-retirement-calculator/

Screenshot with op's scenario: https://image.non.io/7865a80e-d1e7-4437-b983-9101ed023024.we... (assumes a 4% safe withdrawal rate, I suspect op is using 3%).

Thanks! It looks like I can safely retire in `null` years! I'll put the champagne on ice.
It looks to be inflation adjusted, so null means never since your safe withdrawal rate will always be less than expenses.
Yep, I got that - hence the "thanks!" :|
This one is immensely more powerful and should be used if you want anything more than a "neat, that's a nice ballpark to have" estimate like what you'd get from mine.
> 1,830 monthly HOA fee
Good catch - missed that!
Thanks for this, it's simple and extremely helpful.
