$2 mil for some lavish comfort and not having to stress so much about a strict budget, or $1.8 mil for a easily doable 3.5% withdrawal rate. For both numbers I would want a paid off house to be able to manage my tax situation better.
I’m at about $700K in savings/retirement, $200K in home equity which doesn’t really count for anything in this scenario, and $250K left on my mortgage. So… not that close but honestly not that far if all goes well. Hopefully eight years or so.
