So you have done your homework more than one time. You are confident about your required expenses, thus your nest egg. Then you hang around other people and learn about their required expenses. Problem is their numbers are much higher than yours, by a factor of 2 or more.
Does it make you feel uneasy? Do you begin to question your sanity? Are you tempted to work a little longer hoping that your numbers will become more "reasonable"?
I never thought it would affect me, and so far my plan remains intact. But I caught myself more than once feeling uneasy.
