Do we have many other already FIREd folks here? I FIREd 2 years ago and kind of felt like I lost my online community was I hit my goal. I'm more than happy to share my experience with folks still in the boring middle but am hoping to find some already FIREd folks to discuss the after FIRE life too.

I retired July 1, 2022! It's been a little stressful figuring some things out, but it's been great overall. I don't miss the alarm clock!

I love not having a set schedule. Ive wanted to do volunteering somewhere just for the socializing but having to commit to a set volunteer schedule has held me back from following through on that.

I felt like I needed some structure, so the first 6 months I took a couple of art classes. Now that I am a year into it, I'm ok without things scheduled. But I liked having a gentler introduction into having a bunch of free time. And I am getting better at initiating social times with friends!
