How will your health insurance work when you retire? Will you receive social security, and if so, have you looked at your benefits.

You should be feeling good about having a nice size COLA'd pension; and your home paid off before your retire.

So, one of the reasons I can retire at 55 is my job will pay for health until I’m 65. I won’t be getting any social security so will need to make do with what I have saved. My goal is to not have to touch the 403b until they make me at 70

Sorry, I re-read your first post and saw that info was in there. I don't think it likely, but if you predecease your DH, is he covered by your or other health insurance until he turns 65? That is the last piece of the puzzle for me.

I believe that you are doing very well!
