On the path to Fire/CoastFire. But feeling FOMO at work
I am on the path to Coast FIRE or potentially FIRE.
Spouse and I have a combined 850K in retirement funds, 401, 403, 457. And I will have a pension of about 75K in 7 years with full health benefits at 51YO. A primary residence that is at a low sub 3.5% rate and a rental property that is self-sustaining currently.
However, at work I feel like I can contribute more and move up the ladder. I dont have the motivation to continue playing the corporate game of brown nosing. And because of that I feel like I'm being marginalized and being hidden.
I dont necessarily need to promote as the salary I earn is sufficient. However, seeing those who are playing the game and getting promoted will get a higher salary when their skills aren't there, are bothering me.
For those in similar situations, knowing that you probably have more invested in retirement that upper management, How do you cope with FOMO?
