This is one of the most important reasons for FIRE / FU money. It's not about drinking martinis on a beach, it's about not having your values held hostage to economics.
- harlanji 8y agoI quit 2 jobs due to mistreatment and indeed, my old social network now sees me as a leper and I’ve been homeless for 6 months. This is what I want FU money for... never cared about having money before, thought skills and limitless attitude were enough.
- wallace_f 8y agoI think in some ways one of the saddest things I've come to observe in the world as I grow older is that human history was not just full of mistakes, but that people are basically still like that. Groups of people can still betray or harm other people for entirely stupid or even invented reasons and it happens all the time. It's really easy to not look at it if it never happens to you.
