So you thought you had it all figured out? The FIRE crowd spent years perfecting their early retirement blueprints—crunching numbers, slashing expenses, optimizing every dollar.

What was supposed to be a carefully calculated exit strategy just got a massive, expensive plot twist that nobody saw coming.

Damn, the FIRE dream is shattered. This healthcare insurance black swan really couldn't have been predicted by anyone.

Healthcare costs are truly the hidden killer of FIRE plans—who would have thought?

That's why I say FIRE is a scam—it doesn't account for medical expenses.
