This sub often has very high FIRE numbers, which I assume are partly driven by the cost of having kids and supporting a family. Children can be extremely expensive and can significantly increase annual spending. For people who are single or do not plan to have a traditional family, whether by remaining single or other alternative arrangements, what is your personal FIRE number and lifestyle goal? For me, my target is around $1m with a paid-off house. submitted by /u/wingardianx [link] [comments]
