Anybody here has anxiety reaching out or pinging people? I’d have a full blown anxiety even pinging people who have told me to not be afraid to reach out to them.

I don’t, but do realize that there is nearly no such thing as over commutating. Just don’t be a jerk about it!

Don’t send them a book, just ask if they have a minute to talk

Yes...I cope by getting straight to the point; I say Hi then ask my question before I even get a response. Also, I visualize pinging as texting so I lower my heart rate

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled
