Additional Posts in FIRE Financial Independence Retire Early

I’m thinking about increasing my wealth but wanted to see what options I have. I don’t know much about stocks. I know real estate is a good way but not sure I have enough money for a second home right now. What other ways do you make extra income? My background is in audit, anything I can do with that in the side?

Do people tend to age out of wanting to FIRE?

In your 20s-30s, you don’t know much, you’re told what to do, you have few financial resources so you are tied to your job. Under these circumstances it makes perfect sense why you would want to FIRE asap.

But eventually you advance up the ladder, you are now the boss and your people do all the grunt work. You also have built up expertise which makes the job easier. And you are making the best money of your life. FIRE is no longer so pressing.

This sounds like a crazy question, but if you have 1MM in working capital invested in the markets at 35 and you are looking at spending 150-200k in retirement. 4-5MM target number.

All of my models say you would no longer need save, but just finance your lifestyle until 60. Does that math check out?

$300 groceries ($75/week)

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.

After you achieve FI,you basically have to maintain the lifestyle that got you there.

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.
