MODS: if this is not allowed, I will take it down.

I am in the US right now (NYC), but originally from Italy, planning on FIRE and move back to Italy soon.

Anyone else?

Feeling like I need to switch Jobs to get to FIRE

Hi, I am slowly working on getting money saved away to be able to retire early. And I would like to at least have 100k saved when I hit 35. As I am 28 now with only 17,5k invested I am a long way from that goal.

I am able to save up about 300 to 400 euro's per month with my current salary, and it does not seem like that wil inprove soon. I have no debt, so that is good. I rent an apartment, and have no expensive hobbies. My current in ome is about 3300 gross, and I take home 2500 after taxes and the company car (gas included).

In my line of work I help my clients with technical issues on bicycles, with a bit of r&d and rout cause determination of failures.

I do not have formal aducation with the bikes. I do have an online degree for data analitics.

Right now I work in a technical field but maybie it would be better if I switched jobs to be able to earn more money and save up more.

What are some fields you all would recomend? Is there an opertunity I am clearly missing, or should I look elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!
