A return that lets you retire in this lifetime seems to be the minimally acceptable return.
- nradov 7y agoReturn by itself is meaningless. If you want to discuss retirement then you have to account for the other variables: consumer price inflation, risk, contribution levels, lifespan, etc. For individual workers the most practical suggestion is to save more instead of expecting high returns.
- Ididntdothis 7y agoMost people don’t make enough money to save that much money so they can retire.
- crumpets 7y agoThe number of new cars, new iphones, large houses, and other luxury purchases suggests otherwise.
- astronautjones 7y agothat's not great logic. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/national/seniors-financial-insecurity/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/national/senior...
