A few years ago, I started tracking my net worth and increasing my savings to hopefully even have a chance to retire, and now want to push further to achieving financial independence and MAYBE HOPEFULLY retire a few years earlier as well.

Anyone else in a similar situation? How has the journey been for you so far?

Thanks for setting this up! I was planning to create a lemmy FIRE community if one didn't exist.

As I've succumbed to lifestyle creep over the past decade, I've been about 10 from being FI for roughly the last 10 year. I go back and forth between wanting to RE and simply seeking FI. I recently started a new role that has me shifting toward RE, but am not sure I ever want to completely stop working. A sabbatical might be in the cards in a year or two though.

Anyway, glad to have discovered this community!
