    40 now, and everything is paid for. Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher who taught me a lesson when I was 18 years old. That lesson was: you can't buy something else for every purchase you make. Having multiple sources of income is prudent, as is living within your means. I have a 13-year-old vehicle because it is all I need, I like it, and I can do whatever I want with it. My net worth is $4 million, and I can pay my bills without stress, but I don't live like I have that. I have no complaints.

      401K is just an account. So activity doesn't stop when you hit retirement. It continues growing, earning dividends, etc.
      To live off it, you can collect dividends (instead of reinvesting) and/or just sell shares. Obviously you don't want to just 100% cash out because it will continue to grow for the next 30-40 years of retirement if you leave it invested

    I always have a huge problem with the X times your annual salary. Say for instance your scraping by with a nice salary of 100K a year. You've saved up 9x by the time your 60. Then you get a huge promotion or change jobs and now your salary is 200K. Instantly now according to the X time matrix your in trouble because you only have 4.5x your salary at Age 60. Are you really in trouble though and that answer is no and not even close UNLESS you changed your spending habits. It "should" be a multiple of not your earnings but your expenses. Same thing goes if you make 100K a year but only have 300K saved. You lose your job and start working at a fast food store making 30K a year. WOW you've saved 10X amount of money you can retire in comfort. Um no...
    However if you make 100K a year which is about 60K after taxes but your expenses re 30K. You saving 2x your take home pay. Your expenses at the end of the year aren't 80% of the 100K but 80 to 90% of your expenses. That multiplier should be a multiple of your spending habits not your earnings.

    My last day of employment was this past Thursday. No mortgage or a car payment.

My only advice is to payoff everything before you retire and carry no obligations.

    Started 401k at 18 and reached first million 23yrs later. I was always at 15% and my top salary was $67k in retail. Key is start as soon as you can by paying yourself first. I started putting away because my family and I were homeless as a child. Now, I just wish I had learned to earn income in the market as a day trader a lot earlier in life. At least now, my retirement acct will keep growing in the millions on it's own regardless of my next step in the next few months when I quit my job.

    I get it. One day, not too far away, we may not be able to keep working and we have to retire. That said, a ton of people also die never being able to use their hard earned cash. Rather than focusing on building wealth for the future, people should focus on living within their means and finding ways to enjoy life in the present. You will never save enough money to feel like you have enough money unless you live within your means.

      If you can sacrifice to get a solid 10 years of investing it will make a wold of difference. If you own your own home and can rent it then there are even more options depending on how flexible you are. For example, the rent you get for your house could potentially cover all of your expenses in a cheaper country. Do that for a few years, let your investments grow, plus defer social security, and you could have a considerable amount of money for the rest of your retirement.
      If you have money in other accounts then you should be good.

    Best advice: start EARLY. The second you start working set aside some of your wage for retirement and continue the habit no matter what. Increase the percentage you save every time you can (you likely get a raise each year). Even someone with a low working wage can have $1million in retirement with diligence and diversification.

    It would be interesting to see a survey on how the prospect of an inheritance influences the lack of personal savings and planning for retirement. With people living longer, and poor estate planning, most people don’t understand how much nursing homes will charge (steal) from our loved ones. With the so called housing crisis, this might be the last generation (boomers) that pays off a home and leaves it to their children (or Black Rock).

      True. I expect to inherit quite a bit. I may need to retire early to help care for my parents though to keep them out of nursing homes.

    A lot of the working class are retiring with only $100k, because the wages are so low. They really can't contribute much to a 401k. I know so many in their 70s/80s still working, because they can't afford to retire.

      Your idea only works if you don't anticipate living to 60 yr old.

Most of the benefit is on the gains on the investments. Compounding over 40 years is no joke.
