Quotes to ponder:

"Once you start down the 72(t) road you are essentially locked in for a period of time."

"If you take out any kind of loan in early retirement, you are assuming that you will have the cash flow later in retirement to easily pay off the loan."

"The very best way to save for early retirement is probably to max out your tax-sheltered account contributions and then keep on saving into taxable accounts during your working years."
