Guess no later than 45 for me

Don't think before 50... Maybe be a lesser intensive one towards the latter half..32 right now

Planning between 32 and max 37 (depending on how investments/market performs). I am 25, started working this year. Will save aggressively, not give in to family/societal pressures of spending, invest wisely, and have moderate lifestyle after retirement (expenses 25k per month in present value terms). Let's see how it goes, Excel says it's possible.

Hi all I’m new and ignorant to be blunt. I finally found a financial coach to at least start my journey on becoming debt free as my savings is pretty pathetic. But who should I ask advice on my 401k & IRA? I have no idea if I’m investing smartly. I have reviewed the Bogleheads’ Guide to Market Indexes which I feel is helpful so far. I am 40 so not exactly young. Thank you!
