- parpfish 2y agoYou don’t need to FIRE to still get rich enough to retire before the traditional retirement age when your a tech guy making multiples of the median household income. Then add in a few people winning the equity lottery
- aynyc 2y agoI don’t understand that. I read that many times, including money mustache. I just can’t imagine 1/4 income is sufficient. Again, I’m not trying to be difficult but I don’t know anyone who was able to FIRE that way.
- parpfish 2y agoI wasn’t talking about any of the new FIRE movements. Just normal ol’ retirement, but early. If you make a lot of money in your career and are smart about saving, it’s not difficult to imagine that you could shift your retirement age from 65 to 55 or even 50
