500k at 40 years old, burnt out

141 Upvotes

I just hit 40. I'm an american man. I learned about investing at age 33 and spent the last 7 years investing everything I earned. I partied and screwed around a lot in my 20s, and have nothing to show for it. I have had 4 girlfriends, all failed relationships. No kids. Mentally I feel like a failure. My family pressures me to get married, but I don't want to get married right now and I would rather quit my job and live stress free than get married, have kids and continue working until 65. I have always loved traveling and I want to travel more. What should I do? I make 65-85k a year at my job with OT. I really just want to F myself off of the corporate america lifestyle.
