How Much is Enough to Retire?

by: Annette Bau, CFP®

Most people want to retire and enjoy their golden years. Unfortunately, too many people worry about having enough money or having to go back to work. To retire with confidence and build a secure retirement, you need a plan based on accurate information.

Many people ask whether $500,000, $1 million, or even $2 million is enough to retire. But your account balance alone doesn’t answer the question. A better place to start is to ask a few questions. In today’s episode, you will learn these questions and more. Then, you can create a plan that will support a financially secure retirement you love.

This article explores the considerations that determine your retirement number. In this episode, we’ll explore seven factors that can significantly impact how much you need to create a financially secure retirement you love.
