Nope.
Looked further back and found the earlier poll and it’s precursor from 2010. That poll excluded Soc Sec. And that poll showed pension/annuity was the primary source of income. Along with Soc Sec which most everyone has, I thought it was very safe to assume that SIRE was a majority here.
Today’s poll strongly suggests otherwise - not sure how that could be despite 8 years.

I’m thinking in 2010, we just came off the low for the stock market, only people with pension and possibly retiree health insurance would make the jump. Now after a long bull market, more money and with ACA, more people will be FIREd, not SIREd.
