Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Ditto, except I'm single and my pension is a CSRS govt survivor pension with COLAs, PLUS I had a TSP 401(k) consisting of my own life savings to carry me from age 48 (my FIRE age) onward.DW and I retired with less than 500K in investments. However, we also retired with very good pensions that more than cover our expenses. In fact, we are still saving, and our investments are still growing at this point. We will not take any distributions, until we have to. When SS comes along, we will invest that as well.
At age 54.5, I continue to build my portfolio through DCA.
Several posters who are much smarter at the FIREcalc thing and knowing about "how much is enough?", have given the OP some excellent advice.
