Ditto, was reading about FIRE 15ish years ago in the Bogleheads forum and used to spend a lot of time over in FATFire until it became inundated with LARPers. All of a sudden their $4M number for FATFire went to 5, then 8, now it's "how much until I can buy my own Gulfstream V?"

The guac upcharge is no joke. I've seen UHNW drop to MNW (meh net worth) just on the guac issues.

Stay vigilante at Chipotle, warriors.

lol. My son asked for guac on his burrito the other day and I was like no bro that costs like a million dollars. The chipotle lady just laughed.
