Searching for blogs on semi retirement

There are definitely doubts on whether I could retire or semi-retire. So when I had them, I would try googling but I don't find much information in sg content.

I think is mainly that FIRE or barista FIRE is not so prevalent in sg still.

For myself, when I do find some bloggers that had made it, I felt very discouraged because most of them have more than 1 mil cash/investment excluding CPF.

I only have half of theirs which made me insecure. I wonder how they could accumulate a million bucks when I did the same. Was it because they all bought US shares while I am focused on sg stocks....

Anyway, I console myself - if things didn't work out, I can always go back to work or I can rent out a room or two. These are my backup plans. So I needn't have to worry even if I have less.

I am only feeding myself and two elderly dogs. Take things slowly bah. You don't know how long you have left.

I also have a friend who sort of retired cos she quit her job to go travel and study overseas, and she rents out her 3-room flat for 2.8k. if she could do it, so can I.
