I was debating where to put this and was going to put it in the Young Dreamers forum but thought middle aged people could benefit from it and the topic is too soon for life after FIRE forum also.
What if our paradigm of early retirement is all wrong? I say that because I was reading Steve Jobs speech Text of Steve Jobs' Commencement address (2005)
and he stressed the importance of finding and doing what you love. I would imagine he would keep doing what he's doing for the rest of his life so in a way, he was already retired early on.
So I googled how to find what you love to do and found this How to Find What You Love to Do » The Definitive Self Improvement Blog - BrianKim.net
And I have some ideas I want to pursue that can make me money AND ideas that I would already be doing in early retirement!
I know this way might not be 100% retirement but it could offer a great preview right?
What do you guys think?
If you find what you love to do and do it and make money, can't you have the best of both worlds? Have the early retirement experience early on and save for retirement at the same time?
Just thinking out loud here.
Anybody currently doing something like that? Would love to hear some experiences.
