Hello

[Tica_229]

Hi there,

Early 30s, more interested in FI than RE but want to set myself up for flexibility. Also helping out someone I'm close to who's early 60s with limited funds and financial literacy.

German citizen based in Germany. Haven't been able to find a German/EU specific FIRE calculator that matches FireCalc in functionality.

Welcome to the site.

Although the members here are mostly resident in the USA and Canada we do have quite a few who, like myself and my wife, live overseas. It is great to have such a diverse membership.

Welcome!

FI is more important than RE. FI creates options.

Welcome Tica!

The FI part of FIRE - is (IMHO) the key. It gives you the flexibility and options to shape your future.

Welcome. I hope you find the site useful ... getting focused on FI at your age makes it much more likely you will succeed. Enjoy.

Welcome Tica! FI is the key! RE is optional. Lots to learn here!
