Did I actually do it?

My wife (44) and I (44) have been saving aggressively for a while and I didn't really think Coast Fire was going to happen but I spent a lot of time this weekend going through different calculators and AI inputs and I think we did it... Models are actually showing too much.

However, I'm having a hard time believing it and would like some feedback before actually starting to coast.

We live in the semi rural midwest US.

2 kids, age 11 & 14.

Investment info:

$850k 401k

$300k Roth IRA

$175k in College savings accounts total for kids

Pension estimate about $30k annually (today's dollars) including COLA

Debt:

$150k mortgage at 2.5% (15 year paid by 2035)

Other assets

$425k home value

$40k cash

$80k investment (index funds)

Current combined salary $210k annually

Plan about $100k (today's dollars) annually in retirement spending.

Could we really start coasting to retire at age 62? I truly didn't think we would get there and feel like I must have messed up my inputs.
