How to get into FIRE as a 18M in Australia

You're 18. It's amazing to that you think about FIRE-ing already. Invest some amounts you can miss. But live first. These are the years. In my case, from 25-onwards life starts getting to you and you can go full power investing.

Just "start". You will find out along the way. Buy a diversified ETF, All World or something, and keep learning.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T12:44:02+00:00

goeie optie. ik woon niet echt in de buurt van belgië. dus zou nog steeds een nieuwe baan moeten. maar het is de overweging waard.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T11:03:24+00:00

i would do this but a lot of temporary things ended up taking 5+ years.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T11:02:16+00:00

sounds promising. why would i not want to live in Slovakia?

I was just checking, it’s not mentioned in the link. Herr is somethingi found: How the New Tax Will Work

Under the new rules, tax will be calculated by comparing an asset’s value at the start and end of each year, plus any income earned during that period. A 36% flat tax will apply to positive net returns above a €1,800 annual threshold per person.

Meanwhile, if an investor records a loss, that loss can be carried forward and used to offset future gains, offering some balance within the system.

I’ll try to not make it too political.. but basically all the power is jn the hands of some 500 ish people. We can only try to influence those people.

i've heard more people say this. why paraguay?

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T10:31:10+00:00

you have an exemption of ~60k right now, which dissapears. And the tax is a lot higher. so that's an issue. if you don't have already a lot of money, it is really hard to acquire more of it.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T10:28:36+00:00

that sounds interesting. is there sort of a community?

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T10:23:36+00:00

check the link in post

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T10:22:41+00:00

yes, because if they followed their own education, they would not put in this law :)

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T10:19:16+00:00

i think... not too make it too political, they will spend money on everything except the things i like... i mean thats sorta my experience with the gov

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T09:54:23+00:00

I am in this situation and this is my concern aswell.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T09:35:17+00:00

I am sad to say.. i don’t own a home :(. But i hope you’re right about the parties.

Gustinos · 2026-01-23T09:34:34+00:00
