See what it's like to retire on $500k, with examples showing calculations, as well as tips on how to make that money last.

Most people don’t have millions of dollars, and it’s common to retire with $500,000 or so. In fact, most of my clients have somewhere between a few hundred thousand and several million saved for retirement. Whether or not that will be sufficient depends on several factors, such as your spending, location, income sources, health issues, luck, and other factors.

You’ll likely have to pay taxes in retirement, but with retirement savings of $500,000, the tax burden might be smaller than you expected. That’s especially true if you’re taking relatively small withdrawals each year. For example, if Social Security or a pension provides a meaningful amount of income, any withdrawals from pre-tax retirement accounts could be small. They’ll be even smaller if you have money in Roth IRA, 401(k), 403(b), etc.—and if you qualify for tax-free income from those accounts.

Be sure to triple-check your numbers, and run calculations using multiple sources if you’re doing all of this on your own. Unless you build a calculator yourself, you can’t know exactly what assumptions and processes the calculator relies on. In many cases, simplified online retirement calculators miss important details.

Even with inflation, taxes, and health care costs in retirement, $500,000 can be a sufficient nest egg for many people. With some careful analysis, you can learn what it might look like in your situation.

Please remember that any calculators shown here, rules of thumb, and other strategies discussed cannot guarantee that your money will last. The most secure source of income is a government-guaranteed payment, and anything else has the potential to end.
