Why it matters

The article discusses a couple's plan to retire at 62 with a significant amount of savings and additional income from a pension and Social Security, and they have no debt, which is a positive factor in their retirement planning. Having no debt can reduce their expenses and increase their financial flexibility in retirement. The couple's overall financial situation appears to be stable, but the article does not provide enough information to determine if they have enough to retire early.
