An alternative to FIRE is to find a way to live off say 20h or less of work. The trick would be to find a way to get paid a good rate still for those 20. With 3 short days and a 4 day weekend, assuming you are doing a job you live I don’t see that as much different to being retired. And with digital nomadding (pandemic excepted) you could even travel. I’m not convinced that having nothing to do is great and I’m convinced you can find something you love that you can be paid for, albeit maybe less than if you are prepared to do a job you hate.
