Comment on 10% of retirees have $1M+ in savingsparent

Comments

That number is retirement age and I gave the mid-late career median for salary.

The Federal Reserve data shows that 65 to 74-year-olds have a median of $164,000 in their retirement accounts while those 75 and older have $83,000 saved for retirement.

Retirement age is not a fixed number. Quick search says about 10-19% of over 65s are still working. Some through choice, others not.

Thanks for the heads up!

A bit pedantic but it looks like it's $204k now based on the Fed Reserve survey.

But by and large I think your argument still holds.

Agree with ya on that!
