For the anti-capitalists, I have a genuine question (sorry, I couldn't find an "ask a commie" community):

In the capitalist system there is a movement called Financial Independence Retire Early (FIRE) where people commit to living frugally in an effort to maximize savings and investments. The goal is to achieve a balance that allows you live off a safe withdrawal rate (around 3.5-4%) and then leave the workforce at an earlier than normal age. Some people commit to a life of minimalism and lean-FIRE with under $20k in investment income per year. I believe there is significant overlap with the van-life crowd and other nomadic lifestyles.

Is this lifestyle compatible with, or is there a similar lifestyle within a communist system? To expand, can those with a different set of priorities trade away their later working days in exchange for less material things?

It's the other way round. The fear of being left out makes the lemmies dance off a cliff.

(I know, the movie was fake.)

The capitalist sees that the lemmies keep dancing without wondering why the music is playing.

I don't recall giving a party hat to capitalists.
