The Rule of Thumb
How Much Do You Need to Retire?

Financial planners generally recommend saving 25ร— your annual expenses โ€” enough to sustain a 4% annual withdrawal rate indefinitely. This is the same framework used by Schwab, Fidelity, and Vanguard advisors worldwide.

๐Ÿ’กSpend $4,000/month? You need ~$1.2M saved.
๐Ÿ’กSpend $6,000/month? You need ~$1.8M saved.
๐Ÿ’กSpend $10,000/month? You need ~$3M saved.
