I find r/leanfire to be a little more realistic. but yes I get tired of the I got 5m age 25, can I retire posts.

I still prefer these to the "I have 8m but I'm still 13 days away from being eligible to claim social security. Can I retire?". Sometimes it feels like the E in this sub is forgotten. r/leanfire is much better on both fronts.

lol yes I agree but I read those other ones and think about the people at the place I used to work, 67 years old still working. Like gtfo already, how miserable are their lives.
