My lease in Midtown East ends at the end of March and the renewal offer was a 30% increase. I expected the Covid deal to end, but this is 10% higher than the lease I signed in 2019. How do other people’s renewals compare to your 2019 rent?

Always been a fan of FIRE and reading about it has definitely helped my finances but I can’t help but wonder if the movement is more about lifestyle change than early retirement.

What if you want to go on a lavish vacation or buy that flatscreen TV? Are you supposed to do away with material goods entirely? I suppose you could keep working for discretionary $ and live off interest but then you’re not retired.
