Even if you have $20,000,000 in the bank... don't ever retire. Don't ever retire unless you are 100% sure that you are going to get up with a purpose every single day and stay active in spirit. You don't even have to be doing something physical necessarily... but that spirit has to get moving.

If you retire and you are just ready to chill, chances are good you'll be dead within 5 years. I mean, unless you're ready to die, then yeah lol... do it.

I work in a field where I can continue to do what I'm doing well into my 70s. but I do have a exit plan well before that. My wife and I file together and our effective tax rate is pretty significant. I have faith in my investments and would rather get taxed now despite what I said. We opted to invest through a Roth 401k and cash out tax-free in the future. We're also ineligible for a Roth IRA otherwise we would have split.

Both the wife and myself will be earning a municipal pension when we retire (she works for a school system, I work for a town), plus I'm putting money in a 457 deferred comp plan which I'll be maxing my annual contribution to in a few years. I'm 39 now and I'll be in the six-figure income range by 2023. On top of that, I'll probably keep my career until I'm 62-63 and then take an easygoing part-time gig when I retire. Something that will afford the wife and I enough time to travel.

Yeah, totally... better mindset is to have the ability to retire if you want to.. less stress and still have a purpose.. working part time could be a better option

I am retired ... age 57 when I did it..
401 / pension and now SS.

401 had to recoup after Bush failure with our economy / but Obama pretty much recoup'ed 80% of what I lost during Bush Adm.
wife still works .. she thinks she has to line the pockets of the kids, who can't stand on their own feet

I gave my step kids the advise I would give anyone...

Roth Ira is the best / pay the tax's and reap the benefits when you need the cash.
401's a solid , but be flexible --- if you have guts gamble and go in high risk.... rewards are high.
And lastly - look at the economy --- lumber prices are sky high , if you invested in public saw mills like Weyhauser and the other two , you will
be profitable.
use a consoler to educate you !!

If I had $20,000,000 at my young age, or even when I hit my mid 30s, I would retire without hesitation. Imagine the amount of extra money you can make every year if you put the $20,000,000 into high yielding dividend stocks. On average, people who make money from dividends will see about a 2.5-4% return every year. Let's just you earn 3% from the $20m every year. That's 600,000 a year, not including taxes. And that's not even taking into account how much those dividend stocks will grow over time, which would give you a higher return every year for 3%. With that kind of money, me and my family could easily live an insanely good life without ever having to work again. No ****ing chance I'd waste my time still working if I had that much in the bank. I'd spend my time travelling, chilling at home, enjoying my hobbies, and overall just spending lots of time with family and friends.

If I go by priority
1. Free money - max out matching 401k if available
2. Growth - max out Roth IRA
3. Tax advantage - increase 401k contribution above matching
4. Taxable brokerage accounts
