Definition

What is FIRE?

FIRE is a movement built around saving aggressively (50–75% of income) and investing in low-cost index funds so that portfolio income covers expenses well before traditional retirement age. The canonical rule: once your portfolio is ~25× annual expenses, a 4% withdrawal rate should fund indefinite retirement.
