Frequently Asked Questions
Coast FIRE is a financial independence approach where you save enough money early on that, with compound growth, will grow to your desired retirement nest egg by the time you reach traditional retirement age, without needing to save more.
The calculator first determines your FIRE number (25 times your annual spending). Then it discounts that number back to today using your expected annual return and the number of years until retirement. Finally, it subtracts your current savings to show how much more you need to invest now.
It assumes a constant annual return rate and that you will not make additional contributions after the initial investment. It also uses the 4% rule (25x annual spending) to estimate your retirement nest egg.
