Retirement Income for Life??? (12) - Re-posting


He keeps saying he wants to retire early.

 
So, Uncle8888 passed him this retirement planning Excel worksheet.

After simulating with the retirement planning Excel worksheet, he realizes that he will need 13% ROC.

 
13%!!!
 
 
Uncle8888 told him frankly that he is still far away from early retirement.
 
He will need to save more and invest for higher growth.
 
13% is a tough number to achieve.
 
5-6% ROC is more reasonable.
