Recycles dryer sheets
So, what's the smallest one? I don't want to pry, so I'm not asking for YOUR amount...just the smallest you've heard of...this could be from the crazy uncle who says something like "I retired on $50,000 and Social Security."
No other reason than I'm curious.
The smallest I am privy to was that of my parents...they retired earlier than planned because my father had a then uncurable cancer which has now been CURED!
He did and still does have a pension though and Social Security of course, but their retirement pile was only about $175,000 10 years ago, and they've managed to take money from it while it doesn't really lose due to new growth. The pension really helps them.
