The dream is seductive: retire in your thirties, ditch the commute, and spend your days on your own terms. The FIRE movement—“financial independence, retire early”—has attracted millions of followers across Reddit threads and YouTube channels, promising that aggressive saving and disciplined investing can buy your freedom decades earlier than expected. 

Yet for Canadian millennials staring down $2,000-plus rents and stagnant wages, the question is increasingly blunt: is FIRE genuinely achievable, or is it a strategy reserved for the already comfortable?
