FIRE (financial independence, retire early) made a lot more sense when houses were cheaper and the tax rules stayed put. So is it still a realistic goal for Australians in 2026? Tash and Ana take an honest look at the movement, from the maths behind it to the proposed budget changes that have the FIRE community redoing their spreadsheets.In this episode we'll discuss:💸 What FIRE actually is: the 25 times expenses rule, the 4% rule, and where those numbers come from💸 Ana's controversial take on who FIRE is (and isn't) realistic for💸 The bloke living at a skydiving drop zone saving 80% of his income, and what it says about the non-traditional path💸 The beginner steps: finding your FIRE number, tracking your spending, and the buffers most people forget💸 How Lisa, a 38 year old freelancer, swapped full FIRE for Coast FIRE and "work optional at 50"💸 Why the proposed 30% minimum tax on capital gains has households like Ana's rethinking high growth versus high dividendsNone of the budget changes are locked in yet, and nobody can promise what markets, housing or tax rules will do next.

A 33 year old defence worker with a $1.1 million net worth, $365k in super, and $5,000 a fortnight going into investments. All on a $125k salary. The comment section had one big question: how? Tash and Ana crack open this Finance File, walk through the numbers line by line, and take on the debates it sparked. In this episode we'll discuss:💸 Where the $5k a fortnight actually goes, from S&P 500 ETFs to salary sacrificing hard into super 💸 What catch-up concessional contributions are, and why this person is using five years' worth before starting a family 💸 How a 33 year old ends up with $365k in super (spoiler: defence super plays by different rules) 💸 The $175,000 townhouse that turned into a total money pit, and the lesson it left behind 💸 The great net worth debate: what counts, what doesn't, and whether your car belongs in there 💸 Whether $100 a month of fun money is rough, or proof you don't need cash to have a good timeFinance Files are a window into how other people actually do money, not a scoreboard. This one's a good reminder that the right industry can quietly supercharge your super, a windfall goes further with a plan, and someone else's numbers never tell the whole story.
