question

What is a good savings rate for reaching financial independence?

answer

Your savings rate is the single biggest factor in how quickly you reach FI. At a 10% savings rate, you are looking at roughly 50 years of working. At 50%, it drops to about 17 years. Even small increases make a meaningful difference — going from 15% to 20% can shave years off your timeline. Start where you can and increase gradually.
