[quote=Anonymous]For us, it is the only way we can stay in a VHCOL area close to our families and top job opportunities in our fields -- one 400K income would not be enough. Luckily we both mostly enjoy what we do and feel like equal partners in every sense. We've also been able to reach half our FIRE number ($5M liquid excluding home equity) by mid-30s, which now gives us more options for the next phase of our life. For example, DH is starting a new company with less stable W-2 income without us feeling any financial pressure. Both of us also feel like we could downshift our careers at any point if we felt like taking some complete time off, which helps us avoid psychological burn out. [/quote]
