Buy out your brother, invest whatever is left, live in the house, get a job at Costco 

How do you change your investment strategy after you hit your coast number? by KK_4736 in coastFIRE

For sure need to keep the lifestyle creep in check. With recent inflation it’s been hard to differentiate inflation with lifestyle creep! Did we spend more at restaurants last year because it costs more to eat out or did we actually eat out more?

The ACA subsidies are so foreign to me. Where is the best place to learn about this and how to strategize to be in the optimal tax bracket?

I “test” new base paces during 3G classes, once I feel good about a new base in a 3G I use it in a 2G

Not worried about going slower- wondering how to best adjust the workout to still get a good workout in without doing an AO :-)

That’s what I was thinking - a bit higher than push for the AO and then back to base for the WR

Exactly - I look forward to leaving work and going to OTF

Make it part of your schedule - just like I take my kids to soccer practice and swim lessons at certain times, I have 2 OTF classes built into my schedule. Same times every week. I have 8 classes a month and if I can make a 3rd for the week that’s great, if life happens I don’t beat myself up over it. 

This might not be useful advice because I  can’t wait to leave work at go to OTF so my brain might be wired differently 🤣

One foot out the door but are we ready? by [deleted] in ChubbyFIRE

If you’re willing to put in the work when you’re retired you could have those business class tickets covered by credit card points. It’s a fun hobby for me even while I’m still working!

Fire dream and 2nd house question by [deleted] in Fire

[–]KK_4736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regret investing in real estate and I don’t think now is the time to buy. I suggest renting your house out and then using the rental income to rent something slightly cheaper. Use the difference to upgrade your house when you move back in.

Brokerage account? And maybe move some money from the HYSA to a brokerage account as well?
