Welcome to Finance ABC. I’m Emma Lai, and today, we’re diving into a topic that’s been sparking dreams, fueling debates, and reshaping financial goals around the world: the FIRE movement, or Financial Independence, Retire Early. It’s a concept that has attracted a dedicated following of people who aim to reach financial independence and retire long before the traditional retirement age. Some hope to leave their jobs in their 50s, 40s, or even their 30s. This pursuit of early retirement has become much more than a financial strategy; it’s a lifestyle philosophy that asks us to think about what we truly want out of life and how our finances can support that vision.
