    If you drop the spending whatever you want, a few million should be sufficient. If you get a 5% annual return that’s $50,000 a year per million invested. $150-200k a year if you own your house is more than enough to not worry about having enough money. Plus there’s millions in the bank for any truly major expense.

      So the top 10% of income earners?

      The threshold is significantly lower since the vast majority of Americans do, in fact, retire.
