[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Y’all are nuts. Who needs 200k in retirement?

Admittedly planning on owning the house outright, and my work should cover our insurance if I stick around to retirement age. But we are only planning on spending 50k or so in todays dollars and already feel like that’s going to feel lavish. Where are these 200k+ numbers going? Genuine question, I’m trying to figure out if I’m missing something.[/quote]

Everyone has different plans for retirement. We are expecting to spend about $250K/year after tax in early retirement. That includes budgeting $50K annually for travel, $20K for philanthropy, $35K to run our house even after it's paid (insurance, property taxes, utilities, cleaning service, landscaping, etc), $15K for our country club membership, $25K for financial advisory fees. Obviously, you can do things differently and spend a lot less money depending on your lifestyle.[/quote]

You are going to be spending 10 percent of your income on financial advisory fees?

That is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard…[/quote]
