Clearly, you didn't think this all the way through. You think you will be allowed to retire? Who is going to pay US massive debt then? Unemployed and underemployed used-to-be-youth ?

I think your window to GTFO is 10 +/- 3 years, if that. After that you will lose ability to do so. Likely because your savings will mean jack shit because of currency devaluation, but there are couple other different scenarios I can think of.

I know this is bleak picture, but chances are you will croak on the job, in your 80s and will count yourself lucky to have a job. Spindrift baby boomers are to thank for this, but they too will share this fate, with exception of lucky early wave that got to already retire.
