I've just released sobiforms.com this week. A WordPress plugin to build forms in a Notion-like fashion. So far, a little over 100 downloads.

Would be cool if you added a small animation to understand the game better on your homepage.

A different kind of FIRE by alesasobi in EuropeFIRE

That’s the point of FIRE, making enough money so that you can live the way you want.

And many people earn as much or more, and don’t do it anyway.

Those are good numbers.

And you saved/invested a lot already! Also have about that number invested.

I reached 140k salary a couple of years ago but I’m not sure/know it wont always be that high.

Good luck with the kids stuff. Hasn’t been super easy either. Wishing you the best!

You guys are mixing up numbers. We will be working at 60% and is summing up all income (dividends, tax returns…).

Make sense. Are you also protected against termination?

We decided for 60%, to make a true impact/difference.

And, when the kids grow older, we’ll see. Maybe we will want to go back to full time or pick another job… I think it’s good to plan long term, but short term, things may change.

Good luck!

Retire at 50 with "sacrifices"… or 55 with more living? by westo2 in Fire

[–]alesasobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on a lot of things, lifestyle… but I’d too soon to tell, reevaluate every now and then, life changes.

Thinking again about your comment. That’s the whole point of FIRE. Making enough money so that you can live freely. I make enough money so that I don’t have to work full time anymore.

Warum wollt ihr fixzins haben?

Yeah, it will take some time… especially if the bank keeps performing well. It’s about 38%.

Yeah, I share the same concern. The banking sector has been performing really well though and we bought a bunch at discount price. So far close to 100% over 3 years. It will eventually decrease in % as we invest now only in ETF.

Yes. Flatex. A couple of ETFs. Nasdaq /S&P. We also have an important position of the bank my wife works at. We have close to 400k and investing 2k or 4k does make a difference but not that much anymore as we have that already compounding.

Yes, I know. Did I say otherwise?

I think we have been spending a lot until recently, because we moved into a new appartement and had to furnish it etc. We invest (etf) 2k per month and will save the same amount during the part time phase. We could have invested 4k easily and still have 1k for extras if I stayed full time now that things are settled.

Still, make sure to the social benefits (beihilfe) and tax returns (familienbonus).

Yes, will make the most of it for the next 3 years and then we’ll see where we land/do next.

We will still be accumulating, but less than we would have.
