Thanks for the good data, and congrats on your own success. We can’t really get our burn rate below 2%, but it’s also not much higher than 2%. Interesting point to be more conservative in early years, but I don’t think we have that much control on our dial. We live a fairly modest lifestyle, probably own 1/4 of the house we could for example, single POS car is paid off, that sort of thing, but no weird unsustainable FIRE life hacks. So the good news we don’t have to scale our lifestyle down, because we never overdid it, bad news is, we can’t scale our lifestyle down any further realistically unless it means eating at a restaurant zero times a month instead of once or twice a month.
