Investing Isn't Always to Replace Your Income

The goal of investing isn't necessarily to replace your income. The short term goal of investing and trading is to supplement it, right? And yes, you can be in a position, if you love it, where it can take over your entire life. So instead of sitting back and waiting for 65, being able to make some supplemental income allows you to get to the point where you can retire five years early or ten years early.
