hell no i ' m keeping this stuff my whole life <| sep |> I read this and find myself asking ' how much is enough ? ' and Gandhi ' s quote comes to mind ' live simply , so that others may simply live '. I get what he ' s saying but there ' s not much you can really do to end systemic corruption and poverty in places like Africa . It ' s like saying finish your dinner , there ' s hungry children in Africa . Sure there are , but whether or not you throw away the last few bites of food in the US doesn ' t impact that African kid one way or another . Just the same , saving up for FIRE doesn ' t really change the situation in some African country , unless that is , you plan on donating a ass ton of money . But even then , corruption will find a way to mess that up .
