Diania Merriam, 35, had $30,000 in student loan and credit card debt in 2015. Then, Merriam's life took a turn: She discovered the FIRE - or Financial Independence, Retire Early - movement, "a refreshing punch in the face," that spurred her to clean up her debt, cut her expenses and begin saving. She was 33 when she quit her corporate job with $300,000 in savings. After spending time with a friend in Ohio, Merriam left New York City and moved to Cincinnati where she started her early retirement.

Overall, 60% of traders think this year would favor stocks, mutual funds, and other equity-based investments, despite Treasury yields and other safer cash-like investments paying big. I’m looking for opportunities in the market that could fetch me $1m ahead of retirement by 2025.

She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.

I paid off 25K in credit card debt. I got that debt after I traveled around the world for a few years when I needed to sort things out after a sibling's suicide. The debt came upon my return to the States and being unemployed for an entire year. Got a job in my hyper specialized field. It took a little over a year to clear that debt. It helped that I had moved to a small town for my job. The rent for a 4 bedroom house was 700 bucks. There was really nothing to buy. And not too many restaurants to go to. Beer at a bar was 5 bucks. And since there was no peer pressure to go and do fancy things, I didn't feel too much bummer-ness in the whole experience.

22 years ago, my husband and I made a decision to live off one income and save/invest the other. Once we had three children we couldn't do it but for awhile but stuck to this game plan. At 34 we paid off our cars. By the following year the house. We have another $1million and now we are able to just travel while working. We wanted the freedom to retire but I'm partially working and he works full-time.

I mean, if you are paying only 600$ for mortgage and generating 3000$ (assuming post-tax) income per month, you are in a good shape even without having 300k on the retirement. But of course it helps to achieve “FI”. Also, most people don’t want to be forced to work. But, people want to work, too. So, it is great to be saving for the worst.

I don't see how she saved enough for retirement. 300k ish of investments in your 30's does not seem to be enough to stretch you into your 80s even with her low rate of spend. She hasn't discussed how she obtains medical benefits with her low salary. Additionally, that nest egg she has with 4-5% annualized return only equates to 1.2 million or so at 65. It is really not enough when you factor in other expenses between now and 65. She will need to earn much more as she goes - I wouldn't count that as FIRE. If she had 2 million dollar nest egg then yea - I would say that is FIRE.

2k a month spending with 300k in investments is quite a bit over the 4% withdrawal rule for your first year of retirement, and in current conditions, even a 4% rule is considered quite aggressive. given what is likely several years of a bear market and higher-than-3% inflation now and in the near future, i am not sure this is considered wise in terms of FIRE. there are many people who are going back to work after early retirement due to current market conditions and increasing expenses.

So you live in NYC with $135,000 which is roughly around $100,000 after tax, yet you can save around 60% so somehow you can stay in NYC for $40,000 a year. It's not easy to survive with $40,000 a year in NYC I know many whos rent alone is way beyond that.

Unfortunately $135k annually is nowhere near $100k after taxes. As someone who started his career in NY at $123k, after taxes, insurance, 401k contributions, take home was around $72k

Unfortunately, 300K in the stock market won't cut it to get you to retirement. Maybe 20-30 years ago. Now, 300K in real estate pre-covid, would have been enough.

American society is very individualistic. A person's finance is completely independent from his or her partner parents etc. In India the financial responsibilities of the entire family is on one guy usually the son. So one can never retire. Keep on working and create more and more wealth for the family.

@Sheltzer Lafontant, those scenarios are far and in between because the cost of living is so high. She moved to the right place because it is no longer an affordable city for average families of any size only for young corporate professionals. She fits in that category.
