Retirement is wonderful if you have two essentials — much to live on and much to live for. Invest wisely and get good returns.

I took our bring-home pay for the 3 years leading up to retirement and used that figure as what I wanted us to draw.
We had 2 financial planners and fired one of them when it became apparent that they were more interested in investing than in helping us with our income stream. We kept our local planner and fired the folks at the mega company.
I did use the 4% rule as a baseline. We are now in year 3, I'm 61, and my wife is 59, so SS is still in the future. We will analyze things over time and determine the best time for each of us to file SS. Both of our SS payments will be about the same
We "do" things.
We bought a farm and raise most of our own food.
We have a boat and an RV. We fish a lot. We travel when we want.
We are both healthy and make it a point to keep as healthy as possible.
This retirement is a cool thing!

The number 1 fact about retirement planning is that you can technically never save enough for it. Take your health seriously now to reduce the financial burden of failing/ill health and ACTIVELY plan your retirement through investing. Goodluck to us all.

Hi! Thanks for all your videos! I would say implementing plans is essential.

[RoseBalerus]

This is a really simplified and nice information.
Ive been looking for a way to invest and not worry about my investment and ensure a massive turn out. I really wanna enjoy my retirement.

2 million dollars in savings for retirement? I suppose that's achievable if you have an income over a hundred and fifty thousand dollars annually.

So after you retire, everything goes downhill? 🙄

When you said 10K a month, I was doomed!

__These are fantastic takes, I feel exceptionally lucky I started investing in my early 40s and consistently compounded my income via assets to create more cash flow. I grew to a 7 figure well-diversified portfolio having exposure to different prolific investments mainly savings account, stocks, bonds and high yield dividend funds. Forever grateful to my adviser Gregory Thomas Patchak. Passive income is mandatory for building long term wealth.
