So I'm sure there's something that drew you to CoastFi.
And I'm going to assume it was the possibility of what you could do with all that extra money that you're putting towards retirement right now.
So talk to us a bit about that.
Those sound like really exciting things that you can do.
And maybe something to start with once you're sure about your numbers is instead of blowing all of the extra money that's going towards retirement and putting it towards those goals, maybe just taking a little bit at a time out and setting yourself some short and medium term goals that you can redirect those funds to.
Is that something that you've thought about?
And then how would you like retirement to look for you?
So would it look like how you're living now?
Would it look a little bit more bougie?
What do you envision?
And then now that you mentioned inflation, I'm also curious about how diverse your investments are.
So can you talk to us a bit about that?
Do you feel that your investments are diversified?
And if not, why?
I think the possibilities are endless and that's one thing I like about FIRE.
It gives you or empowers you to dream and to believe and to think about all the different things that you can do if you have a lot more money or if you're able to retire early and just have a lot more flexibility.
So I think for you, it might be important to just do some daydreaming, to sit down and think about what your life would actually look like if you stop saving.
And also to remember as much as we are here for planning, we cannot control the future.
We don't know what the stock market is going to do in 20 years.
We can only plan for it and you're doing all the right things to plan.
