I recently updated my quarterly financial spreadsheet and found that I am now way beyond FI. Given my target spending, my investments cover the next 71 years of spend, i.e. I'd need to withdraw at a rate of ~1.4% of my investments to cover my expenses. And my investments are rapidly going up because of the huge difference between my income and baseline expenses.
While I sometimes contemplate quitting my job at megacorp to run off to some foreign lands, I actually like my job, so will continue to maintain course until something changes or even better I get fired! and get a nice package out dance.
At this point, I'm feeling that I'm going to leave my kids too much legacy money, and I have no passion around any particular cause to donate to.
Has anybody else been in this situation? What did you guys do? I'm thinking about increasing my experience spend from now to when I finally RE, and then adjust down to my target RE expenses, after I finally pull the trigger.
