I'm good for #1 and #2.
Me, too. Although I do take prescription meds to help with #1.

A little dated from 2010 but they are rare - "1.3 percent of people who received money in a trust fund" which would make it smaller than any in the video.Hmm, Which also makes me think Trust Funds could be a category too, not that I have or will ever have one. But, I used to own an apartment in a MegaCity co-op building where I swear, half the residents (or at least half the ones that bought after me) had trust fund income (not to mention chunky gifts from parents for downpayments). I know because detailed financial disclosures were required to get Board approval to purchase an apt there (and I was on the Board ).
P.S. I loved that apt. Hated being in what amounts to the most invasive form of HOA on the planet. First rule of survival in an HOA - takeover board immediately upon arrival.
On average, American households inherit $46,200, according to the 2023 Federal Reserve data. But this figure is inflated by top-tier wealth and belies the fact that many households inherit no money at all.

Not sure when the best time to cash them in will be, but my extensive collection of Hummels, Beanie Babies, and Pet Rocks should provide for a very comfortable retirement.
Right?

Yes, and I forgot to mention my Hamilton plate collections.
...and LateToFire, I would never have bought such a place, but then again I avoided both the NY and Cali Bay Area in early career (had companies in either offering) mostly because what either offered didn't seem like anywhere near enough to survive (and I certainly didn't want to be unemployed, and thus possibly homeless in my mind, in either location at that time)
Other.......................3% (Tax credits, government covid money, class action settlements, etc.)
I am 67 and hubby is 69. I retired at 62 and he at 65- closer to 66.
We’ve been living on our bank savings account and a small amount of an RMD from an inherited IRA until my husband starts collecting SS at age 70 next year. I will also wait until age 70 to collect SS. Hope to just live on one SS check and maybe a little from savings if necessary. Depending on what life brings we intend to bank the proceeds after taxes of the RMD’s we are forced to take when we each hit age 73.
