r/EuropeFIRE is a subreddit with 358k members. The most common kinds of discussions are money talk and advice requests, and the community frequently discusses fire, europe, retirement, investment, and portfolio, and they frequently recommend/review online broker, high yield savings account, and etf portfolio.
This sub is about reaching financial independence (FI) in Europe before age 60, which means that working is no longer a financial necessity. FI is achieved by accumulating sufficient invested capital, the returns of which finance life into old age - though fixed pensions may complement it later for sufficient long-term safe withdrawal rates. This sub welcomes discussions about any spending level from PovertyFIRE up to FatFIRE as long as it is fully supported by capital returns.
