The article discusses a Redditor's inquiry about their clients who opt for low-stress jobs despite substantial wealth. For instance, one client with a net worth of $5 million continues to bag groceries. This highlights a growing trend among retirees seeking activities that provide a sense of purpose and reduce boredom post-retirement. The author suggests that while achieving financial independence through FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) is ideal, it raises the question of how individuals will navigate their time and activity after leaving traditional careers, reflecting a desire for fulfilling engagement rather than mere leisure.
This situation raises the question of whether it’s crazy to choose low-stress roles after achieving wealth or if such choices reflect a smart, fulfilling lifestyle.
The trend is evident as more retirees, having financial stability, engage in casual jobs like bagging groceries, seeking fulfillment over income.
