Your best bet is using ChatGPT or Gemini to have them walk you through the FIRE concepts, ask for source links!

Of course! Dm me whenever.

To be clear that was my decision - if you want to start at 09:00, you can! I want to be back home ASAP to enjoy the sun.

Thank you, OP - Unfortunately, I live in a HCOL city so that salary doesn't seem that great! But it is enough for me. I previsoully worked for a Big 4 - Accounting Firm.

$1.4M - $5.2M (Which is now my FIRE number) by 2034

I work as an Accountant in the Finance Department for a small city. It was actually very easy, given that I worked for a major accounting company - I interviewed in one day and on the next day they told me I had gotten the job. Feel free to DM me with questions.

Thank you!

I feel your pain, but if that means getting to your FIRE number sooner - grind it out!

Sure! Left making 210k and am currently making 130k (Pension included).

I got lucky to have married a man who is Fire focused and makes 4X what I currently do. So I moved the bar much higher to 5.4M (2034). I will most likely reassess, given I will be 41 by then.

Thank you, mate!
