<prompt> Human: I make 45K per year, I expect it to increase to 60K after two years. I plan to save aggressively. My folks are going to help me with a down payment on a condo pretty soon which I intend to pay off in full within the 5 year time frame. In 5 years, I want to quit my job to travel the world and do all that hippie shit. Probably take about a year off. The way I see it, if I have my finances in order, Ill at least be able to pay for it without coming home nearly homeless, and Ill have 5 years experience to boot. I am looking for advice on investments I should make, as well as what I should do with the condo sell or rent, and if rent, should I put it over to a property management agency, and if so, how does that work?. Also looking for tips on how much I should save and what I should do once I get back in the way of explaining my period of unemployment. Thanks :  <response>: If you get five years into a career, living in a cozy condo customized to your liking which takes three years or so, the chance of you leaving it all to wander the world are slim. Id travel, then settle down.
