Besides your word salad
What? I’m all for capitalism and have thrived under it.
I was taught and still believe it’s nobody’s business. Only my boss, HR, and my wife know what I make and only my wife knows what I have in the bank and investments.

All you had to say. Everything else is what makes you a douche and is why all your friends talk about you behind your back. Your spouse will cheat on you too, just a matter of time.

Actually the perfect amount.

I like to keep about $3k and it usually fluctuates between $1,500 and $4,500.

Just commenting about how lack of financial dialogue has negative consequences and a major factor why so many now think the system is failing them when actually they are failing to thrive in the system they never learned to function well in. I'm a huge proponent of talking $ and financial education. Even if you think it's crass amongst friends, family and coworkers what is the harm on an anonymous internet forum?

Since I’m handling my wife’s estate, which account are we talking about here?

Why is it taboo to talk personal finance but when a coworker, friend or family member rolls up in a shiny new ride (they often can't afford and/or over financed) it's normal to enthusiastically congratulate and complement them? I came from a military career where everyone knew exactly what each other made but talking finances beyond the most basic of advice for newbies was unusual if not frowned upon. Meanwhile lectures on all sorts of off duty personal matters were a regular occurrence. Plenty of resources available for those that needed to learn to pay their bills but virtually nothing for those trying to optimize Roth versus traditional retirement contributions or nuances of investing while deployed in combat zone etc...

They know or can easily find out if they care to. The only person you are fooling is yourself if you think the government is incapable of finding out how much you have or how you spend it if they want to. Cash, crypto or credit cards, they can figure it out. Privacy, or in your case secrecy, has never been less available to the U.S. public than right now.

I truly hope you live a long life post retirement, bc if you don't, you've really had a boring arse life preparing for a future that isn't promised.
