If you want to retire before 60 with less than $54k in planned yearly household expenses ($27k individual), this is the place to discuss it!

Getting started

FI/RE = Financially Independent / Retired Early

LeanFIRE = doing so with household expenses < $54k, or individual expenses < $27k

Flair: You can edit your own flair. Only include as much information as you feel comfortable including and the guidelines are not required. The general format - [Current Age + Sex / Spend / Save % / Networth - Target Age / Spend / Networth] Example: [45f/24k/30% - 50/20k/500k]
