    Today’s my wedding anniversary (sort of, thanks to COVID causing us to have multiple anniversary dates).

    It’s amazing how much marrying the right person can accelerate your timelines. My spouse was in the “work til I die” camp when we first met. However, they were always very frugal. Now we both dream of FIRE and have a pretty significant net worth.

      Same, but we’re single income due to kids, but my spouse being frugal is great. They’re not really into FIRE specifically, but they’re excited for me to not have to work.

      So yeah, if you’re going to get married, get married to someone who agrees with you on the important things, and finances should absolutely be one of those since financial problems are one of, if not the biggest cause for divorce.
