What's Your Number? (For Retirement)
Just curious with all of the talk of (the lack of) fiscal responsibility in the politics thread - if you were to retire tomorrow, what would you want to have set aside to do so?
Me - I want $2.5 M in liquid assets + a paid off house. Then even at a modest 5% return, that is giving me $125K/year with my biggest expense taken care of.
Bonus question - what do you consider rich/wealthy? Me - I would say anyone with a net worth (excluding primary residence) of $5 Million+ is rich.
