Hi all, I see lots of subscribers in this community. What stage of FIRE are you guys in? curious about the demographic in here.

Neither FI nor RE
FI but not RE
FIRE'd
?

I am in the first category, working towards FI for seven years now and recently reached 100K NW. Unfortunately I live in very HCOL area so I still have long ways to go 🥲

Neither. But I can at least see the finish line.

I'm at the point where my milestones are kinda fun. Instead of just X saved, it's:

can retire by w/o further investment - currently this is well before "normal" retirement age
can pay off all mortgage if I sell retirement assets
can retire in X county - every year that country gets more and more attractive

I'm hoping to reach FI in ~10 years.
