Fellow list member Tim G. sent me this link. I always pay attention when Tim sends me something about retirement because he's my retirement hero. I think he planned for retirement is entire career, and retired at age 55 or 56. Tim has always been his own financial planner.

Here are the 3 questions:

  1. How much money did you model for long-term care?
  2. What's your plan for cognitive decline?
  3. How much do you actually spend?

Tim pointed out that "cognitive decline" wasn't what he thought it would be. Interesting information there.
