Hi all, I see lots of subscribers in this community. What stage of FIRE are you guys in? curious about the demographic in here.

  • Neither FI nor RE
  • FI but not RE
  • FIRE’d
  • ?

I am in the first category, working towards FI for seven years now and recently reached 100K NW. Unfortunately I live in very HCOL area so I still have long ways to go 🥲

    Neither. But I can at least see the finish line.

    I’m at the point where my milestones are kinda fun. Instead of just X saved, it’s:

    • can retire by <age> w/o further investment - currently this is well before “normal” retirement age
    • can pay off all mortgage if I sell retirement assets
    • can retire in X county - every year that country gets more and more attractive

    I’m hoping to reach FI in ~10 years.
