1. What age did you finally FIRE?
2. What was your net worth?
3. Did you find you kept working in some capacity knowing the money you were earning was more "efficient" aka - going to you and not to savings or something else?
4. How many years have you been "FIRED?"
1. 46, and just me.
2. $1.3M in taxable and IRA mutual funds (VG), cash savings, and about $150k-ish in individual stocks.
3. No, no earned income yet since FIRE, but may PT just for the heck of it once I settle down, and see how it effects other components of retirement. Debt free other than rent, and plan on paying cash for a modest abode once I figure out where in the heck home will eventually be. Currently have about $26k in annual dividends and capital gains coming in, but if using a percentage of the stache as a WR, it would be about 2%. I fly incredibly low below the radar, love minimalism, enjoy living a very austere life, being self sufficient, and keeping a humble perspective, full of gratitude.
4. Going on four years, and it suits me just fine... Be darn hard to have to do a full time work gig again, especially so if it were anything but ideal. Once you overcome the fear, and for many the huge transition, it's a nice comfortable groove. At times I smile and laugh, thinking just how great it is. Good luck.
