If we could clarify the differences between Coast, Barista, and Flamingo, I would appreciate it, because those three seem pretty similar.

Fat fire. as a clarification i dont think fire people mean retirement in the way 70 year olds used to mean it.

ive got no plans to sit by a pool for however many decades.

but to me I basically wanna be able to do whatever I want and also absorb dramatic changes in my tastes over time.

to me that requires fat fire.

in my mind thats 20k plus a month after tax and at least indexed to inflation.

for someone else it could require much more

[Al]

Being born rich and never hearing about FIRE cuz money just flows from the faucet.

Maybe in my next life

[Chris]

Coast because you can stop stressing and keep living

[David]

FATFIRE has been nice because I can live lavishly with out a concern I will over spend.

I think even regular FIRE can do this as long as you give yourself a buffer FIRE number.

[Kash]

Fat fire because I want to live a large life and enjoy what I earned. There’s not shortcuts and squirreling pennies away is no way to live after a certain amount of time.

Put the work in early and focus on earning more.

Automate saving and investing so you can focus on earning more.

[Debbi]

BaristaFIRE because it’s important to have a purpose and feel valued but nice to do it on your own terms and not have to work full time.
