The FIRE Exit
Glossary

30× rule

Saving 30 times your annual spending, which implies a withdrawal rate near 3.3% instead of 4%. The larger multiple builds in more room for long retirements, weak markets, and surprises.

Every term, in plain English, on one page — the full glossary. Education, not advice.
