FIRE Journey
Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) is a movement of people devoted to living life. Additionally, it's about living beyond the need to continually clock in for dollars. In essence, the journey leverages time as an asset. By saving and investing, the aim is to allow them to retire far earlier than the norm. As early as even age 40. Considering that the Average American will likely retire north of 65, it's a lot of time to get acclimated to living life in pursuit of purpose. With an annual saving of more than 15% of their gross annual income, F.I.R.E. proponents aim to retire early. How? By building sizeable assets. And, by living off at least 4 percent withdrawals from the principal. Detailed strategies, financial planning, economic discipline, and wise investment are key components in achieving F.I.R.E.
