I am sort of FI for a few months, based on the 4% rule (on retirement expenses). I plan to work for at least two more years to build some safety nets and achieve true FI, i.e., kids out of college, eligibility to buy group health insurance, and a small portfolio cushion.
However, I find that it is more and more difficult to go to work. I have been on an unpaid break for three months, the school starts next week and I wish it would never start.
I have been losing more and more motivation as I am getting closer and closer to FI. I just don't know how could I handle the next two years or so. I might be able to maintain a minimum acceptable level of performance for two years, but life could be difficult.
For those who are FIREd, how did you handle the period from FI to FIRE?
