How much do you think is enough?
It's usually never enough for a lot of people and life is bound to throw a lot of curveballs along the way (for better or for worse), but what's the first figure that comes to your mind at which you feel "okay, if I work for X more years and amass this much money/net worth, I can comfortably hang up my boots and retire"?
Additionally, how far along are you in achieving this goal?
I've noticed that a common trend is that a lot of folks, for all their future planning, still don't have enough (or as much as they would like) long-term clarity about what they're working towards and how much more and was hoping this sort of discourse could help bring better awareness. P.S. - I fall in that category as well, fortunately or unfortunately.
It was 2Cr 3yr back. Figured that I would earn 7-8% annually on it giving me around 1L/month. Now, I am not so sure. Everywhere people say that 5-8Cr is minimum needed.

Just think about things to do before I die and try making them happen while you also save some money :)
I take break 4 times a year and don't care about work that time. Agreed on that
20cr given the inflation and devaluation of rupee overtime.
There cannot be any set goal amount.
One day you will wake up and find yourself sufficient to retire. After this, you will still probably continue to work, but for different reasons.

Comfortable retirement age = f ( current age, desired lifestyle, current corpus, dues and loans, investments, expected responsibilities, luck )

"Comfortably" "retire"? Is this some sort of GenX joke we're too young to understand!
How much do you plan to accumulate to retire and at what age? What kind of monthly income will let you retire peacefully?

I can retire once my investments and savings are worth 8Cr
Will retire with 10 cr with house paid off.
Hey everyone, I'm curious about retirement planning and would love to hear from others about their retirement goals. What retirement corpus are you looking at? What is your current financial status and expected retirement age? I'm partic...
