>> How much income will I need in retirement? This is one of the most frequently asked questions that I fielded as a financial planner. Most research indicates that during an average retirement you'll need 70 to 80% of your pre-retirement income to maintain the standard of living you enjoy while working. The reasoning is that you don't need to reproduce your full paycheck because you'll no longer have work related expenses like commuting costs and social security taxes. To that thinking I would say who wants an average retirement income string?
