Choose your version of enough

There’s more than one way to FIRE.

Your ideal plan should fit the life you want—not someone else’s definition of retirement.

How this path is calculated

These are FIRE.fyi planning presets—not universal definitions.

Spending multiplier1×Traditional
Target retirement spending$60,000$60,000 current spending × 1
Portfolio target at 4%$1,500,000$60,000 divided by 4%
4%Why 4%?

The 4% rule comes from William Bengen’s 1994 analysis of historical U.S. markets. It models withdrawing 4% of the initial portfolio in year one, then adjusting that dollar amount for inflation, with the goal of lasting at least 30 years.

It is a planning benchmark—not a guaranteed return or a promise that every portfolio will last. Taxes, fees, asset mix, retirement length, and the order of market returns all matter.
