Not talking about finances is tough when I look around at w*rk and so many of them *could* FIRE if they only had the knowledge. I would never give my financial details to coworkers, of course, (even though everyone’s base pay is just a Google search away). But it’s difficult to want to spread the “gospel” of FIRE without people immediately assuming we’re on this track and therefore maybe alienating ourselves.
Not exactly related to the OP’s example, but it brings to mind my constant frustration. The battle between privacy/staying in my lane versus “This is amazing, I want everyone to know about it!”
