Just curious on the following 2 points:-

1. What is the true definition of FI? Able to sustain even without active income?
2. If RE like 40yo, won't be too boring doing nothing? Because with no active income it is hard to travel or "enjoy" every now and then and more like living a savvy lifestyle and only can afford once or twice trips a year

Again, just curious smile.gif

1. Yes able to sustain without the need to work.
2. Nope. Not if you have plenty of things to do. So many things you can do with the the freed up time instead of clocking in 9-5 or more than that.

FI if single I think it is possible with determination to save and invest. But if with wife and kids...

I think if RE one thing we can do is live a healthy life, eat breakfast, lunch before 1pm, dinner before 6pm and sleep early. Of course no work stress and unrealistic expectations
