Financially Independent Retire Early – a.k.a FIRE…
It is catchy and attractive.
Questions are:
What is next after retiring early?
What do you want to do after you achieve financial independence and no longer need to work for money?
What do you really want to do in life?
Playing golf every day? Nice.
Meeting friends for coffee any time of the day? Sounds great.
Traveling and exploring the whole world? Exciting!
Going fishing day and night? Fun!
Volunteering and helping someone in need? Wonderful.
Whatever that gives you life may be what is meaningful for you. And you need to decide for yourself.
What am I living for?
What gives meaning to my life?
Perhaps, we might want to start thinking about FILM – Financially Independent and Living Meaningfully. That seems to sit well with my soul.
