FIRE / Early Retirement Planning Bundle
Financial independence and early retirement (FIRE) requires knowing your numbers cold: savings rate, projected growth, target number, and monthly expenses. Three templates that help track the metrics that matter for FIRE.
Why This Bundle
Why FIRE Planning Needs Detailed Tracking
The FIRE path depends on two things: a high savings rate and a clear target. These templates help you measure both, plus plan for the lifestyle you are working toward.
Model your path to financial independence
The retirement planner projects when your investments reach your FIRE number. Adjust variables like savings rate, expected returns, and withdrawal rate to see how each change affects your timeline.
Maximize your savings rate
Savings rate is the most important variable in FIRE math. The monthly budget reveals exactly where money goes so you can make intentional decisions about what to cut and what to keep.
Plan for post-FIRE travel
Many FIRE pursuers plan to travel extensively after reaching financial independence. The travel template helps estimate those future costs and budget for current trips within your savings goals.
FIRE-focused bundle at a good price
$49 for three templates (vs $92 individually). Every dollar saved is a dollar that compounds toward your FIRE number.

Common Questions
FIRE / Early Retirement Planning Bundle - FAQ
Can the retirement template calculate my FIRE number?
You can input your target number (commonly 25x annual expenses) and see how your current trajectory gets you there. Adjust savings rate and return assumptions to model different FIRE scenarios.
Does this account for the 4% rule?
The retirement template lets you set your own withdrawal rate assumption, whether that is 4%, 3.5%, or any other rate. You can model how different withdrawal rates affect the longevity of your portfolio.
I am pursuing lean FIRE - does the budget template work for low expenses?
The budget template works at any spending level. In fact, it may be even more useful for lean FIRE, where every expense category needs to be intentional and there is less room for unchecked spending.
How often should I update my FIRE projections?
Monthly budget updates are most useful for tracking savings rate. Retirement projections can be updated quarterly or whenever something changes significantly - a raise, a new expense, or a shift in investment returns.
Can I track my FIRE progress percentage?
The retirement template shows progress milestones, including how close you are to your target. Combined with net worth tracking from the monthly budget, you can see your FIRE percentage clearly.
