FIRE

Hi,

I am 26, and in June of last year, I began my FIRE journey to retire early.

I have a £3k Emergency Fund.

I have my house deposit saved for (and I’m currently saving for the fees and furniture to go with it).

I pay into my workplace pension, with employer contributions, of course.

I invest a set sum automatically each month, which will act as an additional pension.

I use apps such as Skedadle and TopCashback to make some extra money to increase my savings for holidays etc.

Am I missing anything? Is there anything else I should consider?

Insurance in case you lost your job or became unwell.
