如何计算Coast FIRE
learn.whatIsHeading
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.
公式
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)

- 4Once you hit the Coast Number, you only need to cover living expenses
