Married with 2 kids, ages 15 and 17. He and wife are 47/44. No debt. House paid off, with a $6k/year property tax bill in a MCOL area. 1600 ft2 house they plan to stay in for a long time. A hair over 2 million in retirement accounts, $130k in HSA and about $500k in savings/checking/taxable stock account. In the next 2-3 years the numbers should be about 10-20% higher, hopefully, since they are aggressively contributing. Both kids have about $50k in college funds. Combined income around $170k and they are pretty frugal with their money.
I showed him firecalc and we ran numbers of 2.5 million, $80k spend and 45 years and got:
"The lowest and highest portfolio balance at the end of your retirement was $182,536 to $53,448,024, with an average at the end of $11,146,321." So, barely a 100% success rate. This was without adding in the social security option on Firecalc.
Thanks in advance.
