Retired FIRE Pioneer Returns to Work to Pay for Kids' College.

Sam Dogen, a pioneer of the FIRE movement who retired at 34 with a $3 million net worth, is returning to work 10 years later to afford his children's college education. Despite earning hundreds of thousands of dollars in passive income, he says the high cost of higher education in the US means he needs to work to make the math work. Dogen plans to take an entry-level role in video coordination with the Golden State Warriors, a passion play that pays around $40,000. He says the flexibility of remote work policies and the desire to escape boredom are other reasons he's returning to work.
