How much do you spend per day Neal? Well over $200 for sure. I'm not disagreeing with your numbers, at least for an idealistic budgeted retirement. However it seems you are indeed not the norm, at least as far as age and amount saved. Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSFB Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 57 minutes ago, AKIQPilot said: Im saying for two people in retirement to live on $200 per day is not living large. Its living on a budget. Its not going out and buying new trucks and sleds and quads and trailers whenever you want. Its $73000 per year. I would guess that 75% of the posters in this forum live on $200/day or more. For two people, certainly. 10 minutes ago, AKIQPilot said: Can anyone on this forum live on $40k per year? Anyone. I lived on that amount or less for about the first 4 years of my working career. But I didn't own a house or a shiny pickup at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal I never said that my age and amount saved was the norm. What ive said from the beginning is $200 per day is not living large. Its a budget for two people with 30 years left to live.

It's about your ignorant perception of how most people live in retirement. I think the point Tom is making is that he doesn't want to live his retirement the way alot of people do.
