The 4% rule and FIRE flavors

FI Number = annual expenses divided by your safe withdrawal rate (25x at 4%). Lean FIRE assumes 60% of normal expenses, Coast FIRE is the amount needed today to grow to FI by age 65 with no further contributions, and Fat FIRE assumes 125% of expenses for a more generous lifestyle.
