    I think 78k was my salary back then, the stock market has done really well the last decade. $1.5 million is the amount I plan to retire with.

        In investments, if your investments earn 7%/yr which is a fair bit less than you can make off a basic index fund on average you have 4% to live on and 3% for inflation and your money lasts forever.
