This calculator offers a straightforward roadmap for anyone looking to dig out of debt and build a nest egg. Unlike the original FIRE calculator it's based on, this remix adds a dedicated debt-payoff phase before the wealth-building begins, making it a great fit for those starting with a negative net worth. You'll want to keep in mind that the debt payoff estimate doesn't factor in interest rates, so if you're carrying high-interest credit card balances, your actual timeline might be a bit longer than this back-of-the-paw math suggests. Still, it's a handy tool for getting a quick, big-picture view of your financial trajectory.
