Snoslinger Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 12 hours ago, AKIQPilot said: If you die and have less than $200k then you are a complete pauper. $200k is only a few years of expenses these days. If you die with only $100k left you only had about 2 years worth of funds left and you would be broke. Obviously pensions arent included in those numbers but taking a couple hundred grand to the cemetery is closer to broke than it is anything. a little refresher......

I would bet the average is over $75k per year. Thats over $200 per day. Nowhere did I ever say average american. Nowhere. 200.00 a day is probably average in retirement.

You just need to know where every dime is going and have cash available for an emergency like a new suv, well, septic system etc. Before we retired did new roof, boiler, windows etc so no prob for 20+ years.

Well it was unclear to me at first that he meant $200 per day total for both him and his wife. That is very much a modest budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At any point in retirement if you have under $200k in the bank you are in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
