Maybe not that long but you are on the right track. I have the feeling that many will outlive their money. I'm with Seahawk- I'm managing money " I have a portfolio that matches well with my age and financial desires". Not that it is perfect, but I'm in a different spot than when I was younger.

Whatever the plan, life does get in the way. There are many unforeseen things that happen and you need to adjust. I know cuz it happened to me. Just remember, it is just money, it ani't your life!
