Great summary of FIRE.
My journey involved discovering FIRE a decade prior to discovering EA, which I feel equipped me with tools useful for EA mindset:
not trying to be a maximalist e.g. it’s ok to go on holiday while pursuing bigger goals
not to get into analysis paralysis e.g. rather than trying to find the very best passive fund or constructing my own portfolio which needs to be rebalanced, go for Vanguard’s fund so I don’t have to worry about this.
making career decisions based a way of life different to mainstream.
