this whole modern concept of retiring early has something deeply depressing underneath it
(set aside for a second that many high earners have bullshit laptop jobs and/or are totally miserable in their careers e.g. finance)
the FIRE types are generally successful, goal-oriented, willing to make sacrifices and are low time-preference, and value their autonomy and independence over the prestige of a job or title - literally the polar opposite of niggers
yet in modern society, rather than give these people an outlet to build their communities up and make a difference, the best and most fulfilling life path they can imagine is working as little as possible and then pursuing their own hobbies and relaxing
we encourage people with vision and planning to check out of society as early as they can, leaving only the unproductive dregs and various retards to be the ones we trust to get anything done

@cumsnake@kiwifarms.cc You can't divorce that phenomenon from the meaningless, rent-extracting jobs they had. There aren't a lot of genuine value-adding jobs left that pay well enough to retire early. The ones that do rely on excess printed money, ridiculously easy credit, and other financial games to accumulate wealth up a pyramid where these people work. Even when they're well-intentioned, eventually they see how the game is stacked and want to get out.
