It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

I started my 401(k) at age 54 around 16-months ago. Putting 10% plus a 3% match. Current balance is a little over $30k. If I can work until age 70 I'll have around $750k (assuming I increase contributions by 1% each year and get a 3% raise each year). I am a statistician, so I have very accurately run the numbers. I'm a T1 diabetic, so I know I will not have a long retirement. Have around $500k life insurance to support my wife if I die first, and never had kids. My circumstance is certainly not everyone else's.
@ThorMaximus Жыл бұрын
54 and only doing 10% with only $30k balance? You need to up that sense of urgency. Scale back, get another line of income via part time job, but you need to be maxing it out + catch-up. I’m 50 and was lax about it. $25k this year and done the math/budget to get $33,000 with company match, plus $7500 in Roth. Maxed out 401k, Roth IRA & HSA 3 years running now. Over $100k increase & it’s still behind. $750k isn’t enough, and thinking will be working till 70 with your health? I’ve run the numbers too, and in 4 years I’m concerned that the $40k pace I’ve been contributing won’t be enough. In the 1990s, my dad left my mom $350k in life insurance. It was gone in 5 years. A $500k policy isn’t enough. Sincere-good luck.

I live in Texas and love making people smile. I say things to strangers that almost always make them smile. I met a lady last summer, as she was walking out of Walmart with a smock, and engaged her. She wasn't a very happy lady. She was skinny and looked like she had been beaten with a broom. I simply asked her if she was ready to take the rest of the week off. This usually gives people a reason to express their wish that it was possible. But this lady was not pleased my question and told me as much. We talked for a few minutes and it turned out she was 88 years old working at Walmart. She hated it. The rules and manipulation by management made her job difficult. I told her I thought no one should be working at 88 years old. She proceeded to tell me how her husband died 20 years earlier and left a mobile home with floors rotting. She had to work to take care of her home and working at Walmart was required. It broke my heart to hear that she had those problems and I was not in a position to help.

This seems challenging to do but not impossible. One option (though I understand not an option for everyone) which I have not seen discussed in most KZbin retirement videos in general to reach enough to retire well is to relocate to a country where the dollar goes much further. I've looked into this and it's a complicated ball of wax, but also seems doable under the right circumstances. Assuming the country is favorable to retirees, social security can be collected in most, but not all other countries. Some of those countries have a tax treaty with the US (to avoid being double taxed on retirement income), others do not. Obviously there are many other general considerations to take into account, such as healthcare, infrastructure, and even language barriers for example. In many cases though, depending on the country, adding this option to the table could cut the amount needed to retire comfortably in half. I've been working for the past 35 years. Regretfully, I only just began seriously considering at retirement after receiving a significant pay increase from my employer at age 50. I'm now 51, but would still like to retire by age 60, while I'm still able bodied enough to enjoy all life has to offer. To do so I'm now contributing 15% of my after tax income to a 401 K with matching employer funds, another 15% to stock options in my employer's stock purchase plan at a 5% discount (a Fortune 500 company), and am saving $1000 each month. To do this I've also slashed my overhead by not owning a car, living in a small room for rent, and am currently evaluating ways to further economize my grocery purchases. As if all of that were not enough, whenever I have money left over (not often though) I try to make wise blue chip stock purchases instead of online shopping purchases, going out, etc. Even doing all of this now, I still don't believe I'll have enough to retire comfortably within the US by age 60, but I do believe it might still be possible to accomplish abroad.

As someone who has always worked in the public sector and non-profits (with a reduction in the value of my wages in real terms since at least 2008) , grown up in the credit culture of the 1980s, plus having hardly any real understanding of finance beyond paying my bills, starting looking at this stuff age 50 can be daunting and makes me wish to have a time machine! Thank you for providing hope and some semblance of a possible plan.

Looks good, but the 50 year old would not have a cusion for car repairs, a new roof or whatever. Not doable for most people on a normal income. Take into consideration that more and more people live as singles, and have to do it all on one income, and energylevels goes down with age, so a second job is out of the question. The median income for a female woman in the US, at 50 is about 46.000USD. And withdraw the taxes, this person would live on around 25.000USD a year, to cover all expenses from medical to car and house. I would rather go with the Dave Ramsey plan. When you are absolutely debt free, you can live off social security. You can sell your house and downsize. You have more options.

(Generation Z aka Generation Snowflake - enough said). 200 miles a day? Nice try little one. First day was 987 miles in 26 hours w/o sleep. Belgrade, Serbia to Aix-en-Provence, France. Goal was 1,000 miles in less than 24 hours but losing time with 1st five hours in rain (couldn't wait a couple of days to start due to scheduling), between 1-2 hours lost waiting in line for 2 border crossings and another 2.5hrs-3hrs lost on unmarked detours with closed highways 1AM-4AM in Italy. Stayed 2 nights in the hotel and 3rd day from Aix-en-Provence to Geria, Spain (700 miles). From that day hours upon hours, miles upon miles of off highway side trips in Spain/Portugal videoing and photographing castles, often overlooked historic sites, Roman and other ruins, museums and art. 23 nights in hotels packing/unpacking every day or two before finally returning home after riding across the Pyrénées (Spain to France) and Alps (France to Italy). 3 nights in Torino, Italy. Riding Torino to Belgrade (730 miles) in 15 hours (9AM-midnight). Once again losing hours at 2 border crossings and 2 slower hours in rain at night. (always seems to be raining around Slovenia/Croatia in Oct). Yeah right, 200 miles/day riding 4.5 hours. Gonna make the same basic trip next summer focusing on different photo/video points hopefully closing out my visits to Spain/Portugal to focus more in the future on eastern Europe. Training now for a 450 mile (700+ KM) bicycle ride (French border in the Pyrénées across northern Spain to Campostela) photographing and videoing the Pilgrimage's northern route. Then, in June, there's my annual ride to the European H.O.G. Rally (2020 in Portorož, Slovenia). Don't belong to H.O.G., just like to make the ride and meet up with folks I only see once/year. A short 400 mile ride from Belgrade. (Swing by Nikola Tesla's birth home and museum, castles and other sites in Slovenia/Croatia on the way home) Then there's my dolmen project.......and really got to get caught up on the website, KZbin channel and Instagram.........need to finish online college courses........continue working on my photography..........Dec moving to a new house.........Jan bring furniture/tools/household goods from Portugal to Serbia.......so much to see/do, so little time. 200 miles a day?

Yeah, and age discrimination is a real problem in the workforce. For example, for decades, my father ran a large non-profit and had 600 employees and retired from there but now that he's retired (he's 70), and wants to bring in some extra income, he can't find decent work. It's a ridiculous waste of his talent and experience that his former industry (and others) only hires younger people. I'm 50 and am planning to buy a van to build out to live in and travel when I retire (at ~70) so I can rent out my small home for income when I retire because I have a feeling SS and my pension and AUL just won't be enough.

@saxonsoldier675 жыл бұрын
$551,293 was the amount needed as a minimum to create the $40,000 per year when you retire based on all the assumptions. $6,481 ($540 per month) saved for the first year, 1.03 times as much for the second ($6,675), 1.03 x 6675 (6875) 3rd year, 1.03 x 6875=7081 4th year, etc. until age 70. Remember that you started with $50,000 @ age 50. The important take-away is that saving needs to start today to prepare for a day when you are unable or unwilling to work (retirement). At 50, your children need to take care of themselves as you prepare for your retirement. It is far better to save even more money sooner so that you could retire sooner rather than later. No debt, payed off home, and $40,000 per year in retirement is a modest but obtainable goal if you focus. As others have stated, please do not count on Social Security to be there in 20 years. The SS program is underfunded and will likely have reduced payouts or fail completely by 2032.

Does this example assume the person is going to allocate 100% of their S&P 500 index fund until age 70 when they will begin withdrawing? They would need to do so to assume a 7% + annual return on investment. Wouldn't it be prudent to adjust the asset allocation 5-7 years prior to withdrawal? Say 70% stock & 30% bonds (or more) to minimize volatility? If the market tanks on them when they are 69 years old they are really stuck as they have no time to recover and selling low is a recipe for disaster. Thank you for educating the masses on the power of compound interest none the less. Well done sir!
