I am 49 and $200K away from my Fire goal of $2M investments. I just needed to celebrate that a little bit. It’s scary but oh so exciting that I may only have one more year of work ahead. Wish I could find a good challenging and fulfilling P/T role so I could do a ramp down instead of plan for a full stop. Are those roles even available?

Hello, after doing some research I believe I’m being underpaid. About 4 months ago HR did a market analysis for my role. They bumped my salary for about $2k. I’m a mid-level Executive assistant with 6 years of experience and currently supporting 5 executives at a fortune 50 company. One C level and 4 Vice Presidents. I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.

I’m a IT PM with 5yrs experience, and I’m asking for 100k base. Am I asking for too much? Im based in the DMV area and I have a PMP as well.

The unending cycle is for real. Reached my LeanFIRE number 2 months ago, yet I don’t feel satisfied. Still reaching for the stars… when will this human desire end?

I was once at a dinner with a second year analyst, consultant, and partner, and the analyst said he planned on retiring by 30 and the partner and consultant laughed. Little did they know, the analyst owned his own home and rented all the rooms out so he payed no rent, never ate out, only grocery shopped, and very very rarely bought anything new. He saved most of his income, and was perfectly content with just his video games. That man was serious about not being stuck working forever.
