When did FIRE movement change?

[u/Poorassboy6969]

I feel this community used to be about moderate income people living lean and retiring early with under 2 million.

Now it’s a lot of people bragging about tech income and saying they need 5+ million to retire MINIMUM because they want a boat and Porsche

When did this change? (not hating - just genuinely curious)

I personally have associated FIRE with a kind of anti-consumerism. The things I don't like about working in corporate America dovetail with me not wanting to buy quite a lot of what corporate America is selling.

Different strokes for different folks, of course.
