Those on FIRE, do you have plenty of assets etc that you need to look after.

or are you just a simple person, not much expenses.

and world materials doesn't fancy you....?

In an interview that appeared in the San Francisco Examiner on 26 August 1928, he explained his belief:

I adopted the theory of Reincarnation when I was twenty six. Religion offered nothing to the point. Even work could not give me complete satisfaction. Work is futile if we cannot utilise [sic] the experience we collect in one life in the next. When I discovered Reincarnation it was as if I had found a universal plan I realised [sic] that there was a chance to work out my ideas. Time was no longer limited. I was no longer a slave to the hands of the clock. Genius is experience. Some seem to think that it is a gift or talent, but it is the fruit of long experience in many lives. Some are older souls than others, and so they know more. The discovery of Reincarnation put my mind at ease. If you preserve a record of this conversation, write it so that it puts men’s minds at ease. I would like to communicate to others the calmness that the long view of life gives to us.

their target is earn enough want to retire liao..

how to have plenty of assets like that?

but i could be wrong,
in that  case i wonder why didnt they retire earlier if fire is their aim...

I'm still on my journey towards FIREing.

My strategy is building more active residual income sources that require minimal time/work.
So I will Barista Fire to supplement my passive income.

My FIRE goals required my gf and I to be open about our finances and make sure we're on the same page.
Aside from travelling, thankfully, neither of us have any major expenses.
We already live a relatively minimalistic lifestyle and value experiences over material goods.

We found daily routines that make us happy even when it comes down to our meals.
Low cost healthy meals we enjoy eating often, how often we eat (intermittent fasting) etc.

Our main personal goal is to stay as healthy as possible to reduce the chances of any major healthcare bills.
And our main financial goal is to continue avoiding lifestyle creep.

To me, being able to FIRE means being able to maintain existing lifestyle on savings/div with no outstanding car or home loans while not having to work regular 9-5 job as done previously. No need to ikat perut or minimalize.
Driving flashy cars or buying branded stuff doesnt necessarily mean showing off, it could also be for people who enjoy and appreciate the finer things in life.

To each his own. I don't fancy any fast cars or big house or more stuff. To me it's just more stuff to manage and more headache. What is "finer" to one man, is meh to another.

I do appreciate musical instruments and retro computers though. Spent thousands procuring retro computers....but ok lah, still much cheaper than cars, ifongs and other stuff. 

But there is one thing i must get branded and good quality one are shoes because it directly affects one health, Clothes you wear gold or pasar malam shirt no difference.

have 1 big house... waifu has 1 small house...

m40 lifestyle... whole life frugal... very hard to change habit...

sure i fancy nice things... but good self control... very selective spending... being a procrastinator helps...

but lately try to change and spend more especially food... clothing still shop at 2nd street... lol...

for context... have reached fat fire target... just hard to spend it... 

maybe after the kids finish schooling and start working can relax a bit... hahaha...

There is a good, hidden outcome as an introvert.... less interaction with others means lesser chance of being conned to invest this or being asked for some money to help with this or that....
