Hey friends, I need some advice. I’ve been trying to follow my own version of FIRE—Financial Independence, Retire Early—but with a twist I call FIREBALL (Financial Independence Retire Early But Also Live a Little). The idea is to save hard, but not miss out on life’s fun moments. Lately, though, my job’s been draining me. The office politics are exhausting, and I feel stuck between wanting to save for the future and not burning out now. My coworkers seem to think I’m crazy for not just grinding nonstop or, on the flip side, for not blowing my paycheck every weekend. Has anyone else struggled to balance enjoying life while still planning for early retirement? How do you handle the pressure from both sides? I’d love to hear your stories or any advice you have. Thanks for listening! 🙏🔥 #JobCareer #FIREBALL #WorkLifeBalance
