    I think when I hit my number (so that passive income should maintain until my death), I’m not going to quit working, but begin salary-scale mutual aid / community building / charity efforts.

    But, I also think it’s cool you are living as close to outside Capitalism as possible.

      I mean the great irony being that, as Pat said, if you don’t wanna work then that becomes your job. And if you don’t wanna capitalism, you become a capitalist (or at least petit bourgeois).

      I’ve been retired for a few years and am doing well. But also with the downtime, I’m increasingly considering re-entering the working world on my own terms, to see if that would be enjoyable too.
