The FIRE Calculator is an educational planning tool, not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. It's designed to help you think clearly about your finances — not to tell you what to do.
Every result is a projection based on the assumptions you enter and on historical patterns. Real markets, real tax rules, and real life are messier than any model. Investment returns are uncertain, and past performance does not guarantee future results. Figures are shown in today's (inflation-adjusted) money unless noted, and should be treated as planning-grade estimates, not promises.
Tax brackets, government-pension amounts, and benefit rules are simplified current-year estimates for illustration. They deliberately omit many credits, surtaxes, means-testing, local and regional rules, treaty details, and edge cases — and they change over time. They are benchmark-tested for reasonableness in many countries, but they are not a substitute for official figures. Always verify with your local tax authority and the relevant government bodies.
Using this tool does not create an advisor–client, accountant–client, or attorney–client relationship. We are not your financial adviser, accountant, or lawyer, and we don't know your full circumstances. Before making decisions that affect your money, consider consulting a qualified, fee-only fiduciary adviser (one who charges a flat fee rather than commissions or a percentage of your assets), a tax professional, and/or a lawyer licensed in your jurisdiction.
Financial products, tax treatment, and regulations differ from country to country and change frequently. Coverage of any particular country is provided for general educational purposes and may not reflect the latest rules where you live or intend to retire.
This tool is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we accept no liability for any loss or decision made in reliance on the calculator's output. You are responsible for your own financial decisions.
