I'm working part-time at Office Depot. FIRE seems so far away...

Depending on how much you saved you could maybe hit FIRE. otherwise if you're just starting you might be able to hit FI but probably not the retire early part depending on your expenses.

I know some people that had lucrative jobs that lost them and had to go working part time at Office Depot though so maybe you're like them and have a ton saved.

Just finished booking accomodations for my vacation in August! It's my first trip to South America and it's currently looking like it's going to be the cheapest trip I've taken on a per day basis, and possibly overall. I'm super excited and a little nervous about this trip!
