    At a life stage when most people are leaning into their careers, proponents of FIRE (financial independence, retire early) are trying to save up enough to quit. Forever.https://nyti.ms/2PsI4wg

        How do you retire at 30 with only $1million. Not enough.

        No mention of healthcare costs in the article. FIRE in places like Canada or France sounds doable. Who wants to take chances with our healthcare system the way it is.

        That’s why I read the article. I wanted to see how they were managing healthcare.

        I know someone who retired early. Healthcare keeps him up at night.

        In a world where people in their 20s and 30s are faced with 6-figure student loan debt and a visit to the emergency room has the high likelyhood of costing more than a starter home in the suburbs, I'm astounded by the tone-deafness of this article. congrats, I guess.

        Since u dont get mad .1 is 10% return .1 × 100000000 = 100000 At 6% or .06 = 60000 which is ok return since you did nothing. But not WASTE the money. My mother and father didnt graduate high school but America is awesome like that. I was educated by the best

        Okay. You noted it as 0.10% which is not as 10%.

        $1 million isn't what it used to be. Better move that number up to 5.

        Inflation makes that tough though. If only there was an inflation resistant currency 🤔
