Episode 100: How much do you need for your retirement?
How much is enough for you to retire? What’s your number?
None of us are getting any younger and time flies faster as we age, so it’s important to plan ahead for retirement, a period of our life that could last 40 years.
My wife gets frustrated with me when I spend more time planning our retirement than I do our summer holiday, but it’s a no - brainer... isn’t it?! We all have what I call a wealth window, a limited period of time to create the wealth to see us through our retirement.
As this window gets smaller, it’s harder to climb through. If you have 10 years to go before you plan to retire, you have 120 more paydays to secure your retirement. Is that enough?
