Is anyone else reading
Rest? Though he disparages "get-rich quick schemes and early retirement" early in the book and emphasizes how rest supports work (and vice versa), it reads to me as a guide to a well-lived FIRE life. A lot of the book draws on the experiences of creative thinkers (writers, scientists, etc) and how they structured their lives to achieve great things. I think many of us here have passions we'd like to pursue post-FIRE (mine is writing), and the book seems particularly applicable to those with goals and an ability to set our own schedules (so FIREes).

Would love to hear others' reactions to the book!
