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

Hi! I joined a startup last month and was offered 30,000 stock options with a value of $60,000 with a 4 year vesting period with 1 year cliff. What does this mean? Is it good? It’s the first time I’m getting stock options and I haven’t yet been provided the stock options contract (they said it’s coming).

Being a realtor is not what I expected! I was so excited when I joined being younger, but nowadays it's all work and too little time off. It's a bit frustrating because I'm not sure where to go from here. I've been doing this for 5 years now. Any help on what choice to make? I do not have a backup plan.

Bain & Company What is the likelihood of making SAC in September 2022 if I join as an AC on April 18th at Bain & Company?

They told me 6 months for promotion but it seems like the two promotion cycles with my different start dates give me 4 or 9 months of experience, nothing in between. I’ll be joining in the private equity group which will be new for me.
