Guys,
I am trying to get an idea about lifespans. Could you post how old you are now and what age you use to put into FIRECALC or other tools for how long your nest egg should last (20,25,30, 35, 40, 45 years)
I am currently 38 and using 99 as my death age and retirement age of 55. So 44 years for my nest egg to last.
Maybe I am too aggressive thinking I need money until I am 99, maybe I could retire earlier?
I have looked at all the standard tables etc. But wanted to get a reality check form people who are doing it now, rather than some tabulated lifespan tables that take all people and dump them into a bucket.
