This sparked by an article of Paul B. Farrell in local paper where he states that if you have $50,000 coming in annually, in the form(s) of savings, pensions, Social Security, Lower home costs, and a part-time job (if necessary or just simply wanted), you have the equivalent of a million invested with a 5% return. His theme is that a successful retirement (financially) is cash flow. Period. So any Wall Street Pro telling you that a million is necessary is high-priced baloney.
BTW You may have covered this already somewhere else. If so, Brother Farrell's point-of-view should be a confirmation; at least I believe him.
