What is Leanfi?

Leanfi, or Lean Financial Independence, is a milestone in personal finance where you have sufficient funds to stop working indefinitely, provided you eliminate all discretionary expenses from your budget. This concept is about reaching a point where your essentials, such as housing and food, are securely covered without the need for additional income, acting as a perpetual emergency fund 1. Essentially, when you achieve Leanfi, you have the financial flexibility to engage in activities such as starting a side hustle or pursuing a new career without the pressure of needing immediate financial returns from these ventures 2.
