[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]54 and looking to retire next year. $4.2M in savings. $600K mortgage on a house worth $1.2M (but mortgage at 1.75%, so we don't want to pay it off). Kids outta college and self-sufficient. Expenses about $150K annually, but that's with lots of places to trim fat if times get leaner (20K travel, 1K/mo for toys, etc). Is that enough? The models say yes ... but also I got diagnosed w/ stage 4 prostate cancer last year ... tumors are gone but it could come back any time ... work is OK, but I'm not looking to do it til the bitter end. [/quote] What health insurance would you get? If buying private, are you accounting for that, especially if you had cancer, and you get a high deductible plan. Similar boat to you, but I have not had cancer though I have several family members who have had cancer, so I'm just waiting. I'm budgeting about $25K for healthcare expenses when I retire (insurance for 4 people + oop). I'll be retiring at 56.[/quote]
