I always see people posting about FIRE movement but end of the day just make sure that you lived a live well spent.

Imagine if you lived till 80 but regret during your last few breaths of things you didn't do because you want to achieve your "FIRE" status.

Whether we like it or not, money is still required to survive for long time to come.

Early in life we exchange Time for Money. Along the way if we saved enough to invest then we will make money work for us to hopefully get us more "time" back.

Retiring early is always the nice dream to have, but usually any decision we make will also lead to unexpected problems that we didn't know yet.

Who knows when we Retire, become senile, or bored to death after doing things that we want for the first several years, then later go back to work/build something cause lack progression or excitement in life.

End of the day, always be growing, learning, and building that's the most important thing IMO.

For the time I've spent learning about money and investing(Now 31), I realize the whole "diversification" will get someone financially independent but perhaps after 30-50 years of frugal living which is not for me. (assumption as an employee)

Glad that I took the calculated risk and "semi all-in" to venture into more unregulated investments, else I do not think I will be doing better that what I am today. (US Markets, ETF, Forex, Crypto, Bots)

As the world evolve, the way we invest should also evolve!
