    Save for a new (to us) car, have enough extra to fund kids’ 529s, and get our personal spending to be consistent (wife is the main culprit, it’s much too variable for my taste).

        Yeah, but that’s not particularly useful for me since I’ll be retired by then, and thus won’t likely have any earned income. So paying income tax on the gains isn’t particularly attractive when I’ll be in the 0% capital gains bracket when I go to sell.

        It’s a pretty cool benefit, but not as interesting to early retirees.
