How I retired at 36, and spent 20 years sailing (FIRE, Minimalism, and when "Enough" is Enough)
I retired young to live a life of travel and adventure. I think people looking into early retirement or f.i.r.e (financial independence retire early) might like to hear from someone who has been living this way for 30 years.
Since this question gets asked a lot in the comments: I drive a 2001 Mercedes s500 (w220), the last really great model made. Emily drives a 1985.5 Porsche 944, a car older then her. Both are currently for sale in Florida since we are out of the country most of the time sailing.
