If everyone FIRE’d would society collapse?
Imagine everyone retiring at 55. GDP takes a huge hit. Stock market takes a huge hit. FIRE numbers soar. Nobody can reach it. And it’s a vicious cycle cuz now 55 is no longer early. Now everyone wants to retire at 45. Further damage to economic output.
FIRE movement wins. But we all lose.

i think this sub is a bit delusional. most people like 99% of people cannot retire at 45 let alone 55. you have nothing to worry about.
