The 4% rule is based on long-run historical stock market data. Past returns do not guarantee future performance. This is for illustrative purposes only — not financial advice.

💡 FIRE Tips

  • • The 4% rule: withdraw 4% of your portfolio per year — historically sustainable for 30+ years (hence the 25× multiplier).
  • • Use a Stocks & Shares ISA (£20k/year) — all growth and withdrawals are completely tax-free.
  • • r/FIREUK has 300k+ members with UK-specific advice, drawdown strategies, and success stories.
