Re: What is your plan for retirement?
My combined investments (both tax-deferred and taxable) total about $330K.
My house, valued at about $400K, has a $87K mortgage left on it.
I hope to marry my BF next year (it would be a first-time marriage at age 46 for me, it's about time, right?), pool our resources and continue working for another 10 years, then continue doing my p/t freelance work for another 10 years beyond that. BF wants to retire at age 60, and together we'll play golf, kayak and travel happily ever after.
Nearly all my investments are in mutual funds with a well-known fund family. About 80% equities, 20% bonds and cash. I think I'm in pretty decent shape, but would really feel comfortable if I coudl retire with a million dollars. Alone, I couldn't do it, but we're already there if we pool our $$ together.
