For retirees, it’s often much easier to worry about how to grow their wealth than to feel confident in the wealth they’ve spent a career building. Will it be enough to support the lifestyle you’ve dreamed of? Will it be able to cover unexpected medical or life-change expenses?

Knowing your “retirement number” can help you plan effectively, make more informed decisions, and enjoy your retirement years with greater confidence.

Your retirement number is shaped by several moving pieces, including:

• When you hope to retire
• What you expect your lifestyle to cost
• Potential healthcare expenses
• Inflation
• How long your savings may need to last
• Income sources like Social Security, pensions, etc.

While it can be tempting to rely on a number that simply feels right, taking time to calculate a more realistic target can give you greater clarity about where you stand and what steps to take next.

Knowing your number can also give you time to make meaningful adjustments if needed. If there’s a gap between where you are and where you want to be, you can take proactive steps earlier rather than facing added financial pressure later. And for many people, having a clear target can also be motivating, helping them stay focused and more disciplined with their saving and investment habits over time.
