All you need to save is $1.25 million.

This will allow $50,000 income during retirement years.
That sounds like a lot of money, but medical costs are probably ridiculous at that age.

Sometimes I think I will keep working until I am both eligible for Medicare and not interested enough in work to keep showing up on a daily basis. At some point I will be working more for the medical insurance than the salary.

I always do these calculations net of inflation, so I plan on earning 5%. So the 50k is then in the proper perspective.
