Imagine if you will, your first goal of OE has been met: student loans paid off, first home purchased, luxury vacation booked, etc. How many subsequent goals do you have? Do you always try to think ahead and adjust accordingly? Or will end your OE experience?

I have thought about this, and it would be very hard for me to end OE at this point. I am kind of in the habit of all of it and could easily see just making more goals once my current ones have been accomplished. The only thing I am really careful of is not being totally dependent on it because you never know what will happen.

That is my concern as well about getting comfortable. I plan to reflect on my year in December and adjust to begin fresh in January. If I have to change any goals, I can.

What is your level of concern relative to getting caught in OE and it compromising your situation? Is it your #1 concern with OE, or not a concern at all?

Yes I agree.

Home reno financing question. Have a big project coming up in the $120-150k range. Funding sources are:

- 10k from a credit card that offers promo checks at 2-3% for 12-18 months
- 375k in a brokerage
- 5-6k per month cash that I can put towards the project, loans, or brokerage

I don't want to stop funding the brokerage because my FIRE plan is less numbers based than "hoard like dragon until it's enough" but maybe I should... How would you optimize?
