<prompt> Human: Here are the details:I work for a large Silicon Valley firm think big website with 160k yr in salary, 100k yr in stock options, and about 30-50k yr in bonuses. I have about 300k in real estate and 50k cash in hand. The real kicker is my expense rate is around 60k yr, half of which is spent on housing. I plan to keep my expense rate the same. The questions: How much better is life when you spend 100k yr than at 60k yr? For you retired redditors, how much enjoyment do you get by having absolute flexibility with your time? And, a third potential question: would it be worth it to continue working as I am for another few decades and donate the majority of my income to charity?  <response>: Dude... if you are smart enough to make 300k, you should be smart enough to read and research and figure this out yourself...
