Since many of the folks here are INTP, I'm curious what you're doing post-FIRE. Supposedly a key INTP trait is enjoying intellectual challenge and using our minds. I'm looking to FIRE next year at age 57, but one of my concerns is that I'll miss the day-to-day mental exercise that I get from w*rk.
For the most part my work is amusing stuff that they pay me decent money to do (data crunching and analysis, SAS programming, MS Access db development, Excel, etc). I just want to do less of it, so I have more large chunks of time to travel and do other things. Freelance contract gigs may be an option to still use my mind and earn some mad money.
What are the rest of you INTPs doing to keep mentally challenged? Or is that even a concern?
