Good discussion, Matthew. While I'm a fan of the intent of FIRE, my approach is different from most. I keep my spending fairly low but still travel, and I invest a significant percentage of my income, but I do so in real estate and other assets that can support me with cash flow rather than having to sell them to eat (standard FIRE advice is a 401k and selling 4% of your assets every year). This is harder to do, but my wealth will keep growing even after I stop working. More like Rich Fire! :)
