I am getting pretty close to a point where I feel safe never having to work again. $1,500,000 net worth (feels good man)

How much do you think I need to retire and just live a normal life? Travel a little, have a nice place to live, decent car, nothing fancy.

Is this website accurate: https://firecalc.com/

5 Million, and I only say that because yields are so low for bonds/equity.

>> No.5123690

1.5kk is about how much i would need retire. although i live in a less expensive country and bonds pay at least 10% here. so i guess it depends on the standard of living you want and how much ROI you can get yearly

Expect to live to around 80.
My current health insurance is like $30 per month because I am not Americuck.

Lifestyle is pretty simple. I have a nice flat in a nice city. Don't really like fine dining, or fancy cars. I don't shop for anything flashy really. I do like to have some quality things, like a nice computer, nice guitar. But that stuff isn't expensive anyway.

>> No.5124923

Safe withdrawal rate is usually stated as 4% (i.e. once your annual spending is 4% of your portfolio size, you can retire), but for really early retirements (that should last longer than 30 years) you need to decrease it a little to like 3.5%.

Plus we don't know if the economy will do as well in the future as it did in the past, and a lot of signs point to no, so personally I use an SWR of 3%.

I'm not sure how expensive it is to live in the U.S., but I'd guess you could get the lifestyle you want for about $30k per year. In that case, you'd need $1,000,000, so your $1,500,000 target should be enough. Needs to be invested in something like 75% stocks / 25% bonds though.

>> No.5125087

>>5124923
This. I would personally not use more than 3% either. Would you say bond allocation is really necessary if you are young and only withdraw 1-3%?

>>5124896
but why would you want to completely retire at 30 anyway?

>> No.5125195

>>5122452
$300k at 10%/year and I'd have an upper class income in my country, but for a neet lifestyle at home I'd be comfy with $100k.

>> No.5125230

>>5125087
Not an expert on bonds vs. stock allocation, but 75% / 25% or 60% / 40% is the common recommendation. Seems like the extra volatility of 100% stocks increases your chances of a big crash fucking you over and making you run out of money too soon (I guess if you're hit with a big crash shortly after you start retirement, you withdraw a big percentage of your portfolio in year 2 or 3, and that means it doesn't grow as much in later years). It should be fine if your portfolio is much bigger than you need it to be, though.

My money manager (you have a money manager, don't you, /biz/?) averages me about 13% yearly ROI on my $800 egg.

Let's even round that down to 10% for ease of math. You're telling me that you don't think that you could live off of fucking $150k/yr passive!?

You could unironically buy a nice, french sailing yacht (an amel, brand fucking new) for that much money and retire to the south pacific.

$1.5M is absolutely in the realm of *fuck you* money.

Give that money to a *good* non-meme money manager. Let it compound for 10 years until you hit your mid 30s, buy a yacht, and fucking literally sail off into the sunset.

I know, I know, I am a wagecuck of the highest order.

That said, I don't want to fully retire. I am closing on being able to, but I would reduce hours and travel more, but that's it. I kinda like my job and due to being a socially inept assburger, my workplace gives me a social network I would miss otherwise. I even have acquired GF there.

sounds like a scam, or maybe he is investing all your money in crypto without you knowing. He makes like 100% return a month and gives you like 1.1% of that.
