Happened upon an article about "The secrets of successful retirement savers"
at The secrets of successful retirement savers - MarketWatch
It is a synopsis of an interview with Marc Diana who wrote an e-book based on interviews with retirees called: “The Retiree Next Door: Successful Seniors’ Surprising Secrets” and talked about what he learned. Seems that his take was happy retirees have a handle on spending and have learned to live a happy life without tons of $$. I didn't read the e-book, but found it interesting that many who say they are successful found a way to retire on less than $500K and they noted that many worked for large companies and went along with a defined contribution plan where they were pushed into saving.
