I want to retire in 10 years.

Posted by EE on October 24, 2003

Does the above mean I want to retire within the next ten years and therefore can be just 7 or 8 years, etc. or does it mean that I want to retire 10 years from now and not earlier? Also, would American and British English make a difference here?
