Discussion:
The client currently is 46 years old, with an income of about $126,000 per year. His goal is to retire between ages 62 and 67 and to have enough savings to live comfortably in about the same fashion he does now (with some money available for expanded travel). The client's
accumulated savings for retirement total $137,000. His employer contributes around $10,000 per year into the retirement fund, while he has been contributing $7,500. How much should he be saving?
