Coast FIRE is a financial independence strategy where you save aggressively early, then let compound interest grow your portfolio to your FIRE number by retirement — without contributing another dollar.

Công thức

FV = PV × (1 + r)^n; years_to_FIRE = log(target_amount / current_savings) / log(1 + annual_return)
PV
Current savings ($) — Amount already saved
r
Annual return (%) — Investment return (e.g., 7% stock market)
n
Years (years) — Time until retirement
FV
Future value ($) — Amount at retirement (compound growth)
