Define financially “set.” I mean if I got laid off today, I could survive retirement. But I plan to work around 5 more years to get more saved up and to feel more comfortable. I also have some inheritance money coming, but I’m not counting on that cause you never know.

45

45-50 hopefully

50 is a good one

The key is cash flow. I should have enough to cover my current life costs by about 45. Doesn't mean I'll stop working then but I'll have the freedom to do so if i want.

These days, when you win the lottery, have enough dead relatives that make you their beneficiary, or you sold your big home and downsized to a smaller one that you paid in full and own completely, then you can provided that you can work part-time to secure funds for the upcoming hospital bills, and paid in full your funeral costs.

By 50/55

Apparently 40! Just pulled the trigger…😬😬😬 May do some additional paid work at some point but am retiring from banking.

Yes it pays well but there is constant pressure to bring in new clients and assets. What it’s like can vary a lot group to group I think. Some teams are huge and decades old, others are small and new. YMMV but I’ve had a good experience. People are way nicer and more collaborative than I expected.

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
