Post financial independence, instead of RE, how about taking up a cool and relaxed job?
There are plenty of companies that can't pay near market. They struggle to hire people. They can't afford to loose people. If you say you are leaving, they will do everything in their control to make you stay and make you feel good. One such company I worked earlier provided me WFH 2-3 days a week, my boss always was extra nice to me, every time I told them I am leaving several people would try to persuade me (my boss, his boss, boss's boss).
FIRE may get boring after sometime. Instead by moving to such cool jobs, we have camaraderie from colleagues, WFH which can be like FIRE, keep engaging your mind in doing something etc...
