I’ll guess I’ll kick off this week’s discussion thread with some questions. Where does everyone see themselves on the FI spectrum from lean to fat? Assuming you’re focused on early retirement, what are you optimizing for in retirement?
I think lean probably... fat FIRE seems highly unlikely in my situation. I like the idea of working part time in the future without being so stressed for money. Just want to have enough to live on in my current home, help my parents in their old age, and not be too bored in the future.
