  • FIRE stands for Financial Independence Retire Early. It’s a retirement method that challenges the conventional method of working until the age of 65 and instead quits their jobs in their early 40s or even in their 30s. The concept was inspired by a book titled “Your Money or Your Life” which was written by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez. In this video, we will discuss the F.I.R.E method in depth along with the 4% Rule & Financial Independence Ratio.

    SETTING UP YOUR F.I.R.E. STRATEGY
    The core tenets of a FIRE strategy are rather simple, firstly, you start by saving 50 to 70% of your income. Secondly, you show economic discipline by living frugally. And thirdly, you invest your savings wisely with the preferred instrument being a low-cost index fund.
    And that’s it: Save More, Spend Less & Invest Wisely. These are the three bedrock principles of any FIRE strategy. Which starts by you asking yourself two basic questions:
    How much income do you need to sustain your lifestyle in early retirement?
    How soon do you want to retire?
    Let's focus on the first question. Which is another way of saying how much are you allowed to spend on a monthly or yearly basis? A helpful and often used rule-of-thumb around this is the 4% RULE.
    If you retire with a kitty of say, 5 crores then per the 4% rule, you can use up 4% of 5 crores each year which comes to 20 lakh rupees. Infact, another way of doing this is to reverse the rule so 4% when inverted comes to 25 times which means your retirement corpus needs to be 25 times the amount you'll withdraw the first year.
    For instance, the 4% rule was built on the assumption that your invested portfolio would grow at an average of 7% per year which seems perfectly doable. Like the fact that the 4% rule was built to work reliably for 30 years however if you are retiring at the age 40 or 45 then your retirement journey is a lot longer and 4% might be a bit too high a number. Another issue with the 4% rule is that it doesn’t account for inflation which for a country like India is a much higher number as compared to more developed countries like the United States. But the good thing is that anyone can make their own version of the 4% rule and surely would add inflation in it.
    The first step is to save anywhere from 50 to 70% of one’s income every month which is a lot higher than the standard 15 to 20% savings that most financial advisors put forward. The second step under the FIRE strategy is to spend wisely. Some expense management tips include.
    Driving a used car rather than a new one
    Use public transportation if living in the city
    Avoid credit card debt and use them for rewards etc.
    Another area worth considering is the importance that’s given to passive income by the FIRE community. A number of followers use something called the FI ratio or the Financial Independence Ratio. FI Ratio = Passive Income/Expenses
    For example, if you earn 2 lakh rupees as passive income and your expenses are 1.5 lakh rupees then you have an FI ratio of 133%. Now generally, anything over a 100% indicates that some real good progress has been made towards one’s financial independence.The final step in the FIRE method is investment.
    WHAT’S FUELLING THE F.I.R.E. MOVEMENT?
    The FIRE movement is catching on because millennials and Gen-Zees. For instance, a lot of them are questioning the utility of the current system which encourages a consumerism-led template of take a home loan, buy a car, work 9 to 5 for the next 30 years to repay these loans and accumulate enough wealth to retire in our 50s or 60s. FIRE might be the solution for the moment as it gives many of them the financial breathing room to work part-time doing something they enjoy, convert a hobby into a business, spend time with their family, travel etc.

    This is my fifth year after retirement. I’e been following the 4% rule thing I saw on a youTube channel, but this isn’t really how hard I expected things to be. After I cashed out a lump sum, I still have about $760k left, but at this rate, and with how the market is (we were putting money away in an index fund), I’m starting to get really worried.

      Not a lot of people are able to save that much in a lifetime. But now you are retired and depend on your investment, it’s best you redistribute your capital. To simplify the process, you could allocate your resources with the help of a financial advisor.

      I’m closing in on retirement, too, and I have benefitted so much from using a financial advisor. I didn’t start early, so I knew the compound interest of index fund investing would not work for me. Funny how I pulled in more profit than some of my peers who had been investing for many years.

    More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire without any investment. Retirement becomes truly fulfilling when you possess two essential elements: financial resources and a meaningful purpose in life. Make prudent investment choices to secure good returns and ensure a comfortable retirement and that is where Cynthia McClure Alexander comes into place because she knows how to make use of your resources to ensure you have a good retirement and planned life .

    My approach towards this
    1. Lead as simple as possible life with a great approach towards minimalism
    2. Have a simple food and easily digestible veg food , home cooked
    3. Never try to find happiness by way of spending more money
    4. Happiness is not in international tours, fancy cars, fancy club memberships, and lavish life style, rather being simple, humble , having minimum expectations in life
    5. Finally maintain a great concentration on your health , because you can live without enough money but not without enough health
    6. If you maintain good health, you dont need more money . that's it. Make your children understand the above points and dont grow them as money making machines , life is rather more than all of these

    I didn’t know about FIRE movement, but I always wanted to be financially independent at young age. So my journey began 9 years ago when I immigrated to Israel, I started investing 90% of my income in mutual funds from April 2014 and I’m so proud to inform that I made my last investment in March 2022, I’m 33 years young and I have invested enough corpus in mutual funds to retire comfortably. I won’t retire completely yet but I will do something where I will have complete freedom where I can decide if I want to work on particular day or not, how many hours, what hours, etc. I will be fulfilling my hobbies which includes travelling, fishing, hiking trips and outdoor adventures in the coming years.

I do spend a lot of time talking and writing about Financial literacy, FI and FIRE. I know further details are beyond the scope of this introductory video but touching on the bucket strategy would definitely help. Also, in India a 2.5% swr (ie 40X corpus) is likely to provide a good buffer, but nobody knows the answer.

    Main issue that you missed - Once you retire early, where do you invest safely which can give you 12% returns (considering Inflation at 7-8%) yearly and enables you to withdraw 4% for your expenses. Inflation is the greatest enemy of FIRE and you need to keep generating the returns so as to not touch the corpus.
    If we are talking about MUTUAL FUNDS / STOCKS the yearly returns are not guaranteed and will fluctuate. So in a year where the return is only 1% , I still need to withdraw 4% for my expenses thereby reducing the corpus

    • @fanofkimi
      @fanofkimi 2 роки тому +2

      I think the 12% is applicable for building corpus only.
      Once you take a decision to retire, expecting 12% with peace is not possible. Hence a lower and safer option of 5 to 6% must be expected from the corpus and from this 4% withdrawal every year is what is explained

    • @GamerInVoid
      @GamerInVoid 2 роки тому +1

Also ensured there is enough Health Insurance for my family. I used same 4% withdrawal rule to dip into my corpus. These things helped me arrive at my retirement when I turned 50 in Dec-2022.

      Hi. This point was addressed in video in the form of upping one's income. For FIRE followers, a higher income more than compensates for incremental expenses. I know a blogger whose income is increasing by 15-20% every year while his fixed income is more-or-less constant. Ofcourse, while these guys have done their math .. everyone needs to do the math for themselves.

    Frugality, investing wisely, reviewing your investments regularly helps a lot. I am in my late 40s and practically happily retired and only work about 2 to 3 hours in a day now just to keep myself busy. Though was never aware of FIRE concept when I started but almost followed the same principles. I started mainly with small cap fund direct options and investing daily instead of doing SIPs, which grew substantially over a period of time. Still continue to invest in small cap fund direct option. Once investment options like InvITs and REITs came in India, I jumped ship and invested in them. Now, I regularly receive quarterly distributions from these instruments which is a major passive earning, additionally the price of the units/stocks of InvITs have grown 1.3x to 1.5x over the period which is an added bonus. Also I continue to invest daily in ELSS fund direct option which gives me a good cushion in form of monthly withdrawals after 3 years plus the tax benefit.

      Hi. Actually Genius has been made in a way that there is no different strategy one needs to put small or big monies in SIP or lumpsum mode. That's because Genius is continously looking at the portfolio, changing asset allocation and rebalancing it. This helps and I'm sure you would have seen the effects of that in your Genius portfolio in terms of high performance. I will have a follow-up video on Genius in the next 2-3 weeks, will try to address this and a few more commonly asked questions.

    Secondly why should the inflation be constant across expenses Head which is not the case example items like Cable/DTH, broadband, Mobile bills,, utility bills don't go up by same high % yoy (almost 30% of your expenses inflate not more than 2-3%
    And the very most important is you need to live this moment too and not just survive and planning for tomorrow. You should limit your savings max to 50% of your earnings and with rest 50% learn to spend to enjoy the life every moment
