I think the issue is that, at least from my interpretation, the poster suggested it was the $1000/month in savings that was what was mainly what was putting them on the road to financial freedom by the age of 40. Unless the "and more" part is more significant, and/or the couple is super frugal, it seems disingenuous to hint that the difference in mortgage payment vs. renting is what will allow them to stop working at age 40.
