    Just out of interest what sum would people think is enough to live on comfortably per year. I define comfortable as not having to count every penny, take a couple of foreign holidays a year and replace your car every 4 years. I am 58 and considering retiring but I am worried about how much is needed per annum.

    That’s a million dollar question!
    You should know what your current outgoings are. The missing bits are:
    What you won’t need post retirement
    Would you downsize
    Are you planning to live just from an income or with a nest egg to take from
    Are foreign holidays a fortnight in Benidorm or a Caribbean cruise?

    I worked out I can live on about £15k gross, that’s w no debt other than a car, but with a nest egg that’ll cover my treats till I reach 67 at which point my income will increase. But my Mrs will still be working have a larger income, and a larger pension.

    And congrats NYR
    I’m hoping to go in approx 18months, but the closer it gets the more I think about a bit of pt for a year to boost the income for a bit more contingency.
