FIRE is flame because it encourages young people that they can "win" and be done with their careers at 30 or 35 which is WAY too early. It has become, for some people, a justification for not getting married and not starting families which is weird and misguided. It is flame because all of the people that purport to be the mastermen of FIRE are really just going around the country giving talks, setting up their own podcasts where they discuss the same things over and over again, going to conferences about how they can sell their stupid little story to the masses, writing books about personal finance like they are experts, engaging in potentially really risky schemes like real estate speculation with a large percentage of their net worth, starting other types of coaching or guru type businesses that do nothing other than sell the image of success.

FIRE is ridiculous. If you don't want to work, don't work. It's really that simple. You can choose to do this if you are poor or if you are rich. Most people choose to work because they aren't bums.

Aren't you the only person in America who lost money buying a house? You shouldn't be giving anybody any sort of financial advice HTH

Single family homes are one of the ways that wealth is siphoned off of the middle class and lower class in Amerikkka (rich people too actually). Everyone knows this.

You seem to be a clueless lemming with respect to this subject.

No, you're such a fool you lost money on a surefire thing. I'm a multimillionaire and my house is one of my many appreciating assets. It's not just that you're an obese failure, you think that being obese and a failure somehow gives you insights or expertise. It's the opposite; you shouldn't be trying to teach anybody anything, you should be learning to be less of a failure and less so fucking fat. You're like a jar of stale mayonnaise in multiple ways.
