Retiring rich is by no means easy, but it's also not as hard as you think – that is if you start early, keep adding regularly to your investment account and buy quality stocks at a reasonable price.

One of the keys to successfully meeting your retirement goals is discipline.

Easing up on spending today so that you have funds to invest to secure your financial future takes discipline; not chasing the latest hot stocks takes discipline too. Remaining disciplined in your demand for quality stocks at a fair price is critical and can be all too easily forgotten in the excitement of a bull market.

For those investors with the discipline to remain focussed on buying quality stocks at a reasonable price, here are three opportunities to consider researching further to help you retire rich.

AMP Limited (ASX: AMP) is forecast to grow both its earnings and dividends in FY 2015. Based on consensus data provided by Morningstar, the insurer and financial services giant is trading on an attractive looking FY 2015 price-to-earnings (PE) ratio and dividend yield of 15.9 and 5.1% respectively.

Automotive Group Holdings Ltd (ASX: AHE) is one of Australia's largest retailers of cars and trucks, the group also has a major refrigerated logistics business. Based on consensus data the stock will grow its dividends and earnings over the coming year. If it meets expectations then the stock is trading on a FY 2015 PE of 11.1 and a fully franked yield of 6.5%.

SKYCITY Entertainment Group Limited-Ord (ASX: SKC) operates casinos in Australia and New Zealand. With its earnings and dividends both forecast to grow over the next year, the stock is selling on a forecast FY 2015 PE of 13.4 and a yield of 5.8%.
