Anyway, this "retire at 30" stuff sounds like real pie-in-the-sky stuff to me. It's built on having a hell of a lucky start to begin with, and then some more luck and the ability to be the most boring 20-something person that ever lived.

Oh, and thinking you are Warren Buffett.
Retire at 30 is a huge stretch that requires things to go right (ie luck). For MMM, it was getting in on the tech boom as an engineer. However, some of the ideas can be used to materially shorten the time it would take for a regular person to retire. Being able to retire 10 years sooner than they otherwise could is something I bet most people would like.
