They have to fund his retirement. That advice doesn't come cheap.

Baron

It's less dependent on salary and much more dependent on expenses.

But there is a reason they use salary.

Eddie

Salary is horrible indicator for someone who has a very high savings rate (30%+).

2/26/21 2:27pm

Yup. It is.

Eddie

I get where you are coming from and I don't really have an answer for the general population.

Eddie

I'm techinically retired, but my spending is a fraction of what it was before.

Much different to have $100K saved as a 40 yo doctor vs. as a 40 yo HS teacher.

2/26/21 2:06pm

Not if the doctor lives like the teacher.

Baron
