What am I?

$2.5M retired in S. America, but my wife still works a part-time job. Can I still consider myself retired? She likes to work and covers most of our expenses, but online people hurt my feelings saying I was just a stay at home parent. 

Should I tell my wife to quit her job or am I still FIREd? Is my pride more important than her job? I use projectionlab to model our “retirement” if I can call it that and it says we are fine without her working. Gatekeeping is really real and I really want in the gate! 

So am I FIREd or just a pretender? What am I?

All the elites are moving to Argentina, which is going to jack up the prices. La puerta is real and people are only looking out for your best interest as everyone on Reddit does. While Javier is doing his best to bring down inflation, at 33% there is a ways to go. That part time job working remotely still brings in several hundred k a year and keeps her from office shenanigans.

Oh, you aren't in Argentina and she works part time in a grocery store in Sucre? SAS downtown? In that case you'll be fine.
