What is FIRE? Understanding Financial Independence and Early
Retirement
</h2>
<p className="mb-4 text-lg leading-relaxed">
FIRE stands for &quot;Financial Independence, Retire Early.&quot;
It&apos;s a movement focused on aggressive saving and investing to
build a large enough portfolio that the returns can cover living
expenses indefinitely. Achieving FIRE means you are no longer
dependent on traditional employment to fund your lifestyle, giving
you the freedom to pursue passions, travel, or simply enjoy life
without the need for a regular paycheck.
It&apos;s a movement focused on aggressive saving and strategic
investing to build a substantial portfolio. The goal is for
investment returns to cover living expenses indefinitely, freeing
you from traditional employment. Achieving FIRE means gaining the
freedom to pursue passions, travel, or simply enjoy life without
needing a regular paycheck. Sound investing advice is crucial for
building the wealth needed.

The core principle often involves saving a high percentage of income
(sometimes 50% or more) and investing it wisely, typically in
low-cost index funds. The target amount, often called the &quot;FIRE
number,&quot; is usually calculated as 25 times your desired annual
spending, based on the 4% safe withdrawal rate rule.
The core principle involves maximizing your savings rate (often
50%+) and investing wisely, typically in low-cost, diversified
assets like index funds. Your &quot;FIRE number&quot; – the capital
needed – is often estimated as 25 times your desired annual
spending, derived from the 4% safe withdrawal rate guideline. This
FIRE calculator helps you personalize this estimate.
