Hi all! My first post! I finally signed up after lurking for a lot of years!
My question is - Can you consider yourself FIRE'd if you are still a shareholder and on the board of your company - or do you have to be "gainfully unemployed"? I resigned my post as President / CFO in 2019 and became a "non-working" shareholder. I'm still getting salary/benefits and still own my stock (not so patiently waiting on a buyout). No daily responsibilities, but I still answer the occasional question from the new President and CFO. Soooo, am I FIRE'd? or semi-FIRE'd?
