		<description>Joe,
Congrats on getting a well balanced budget!

However, you should also consider that you will get bored if you don&#039;t do anything at retirement. Hence, traveling, eating out, hobbies or possibly doing major renovation will probably take 20% of your existing expenses. This is why we suggest 70% of your current gross income.

As a financial planner, I did plan with 50% to 125% of current income of my client depending on the lifestyle the wish to have (and their assets ;-)).</description>
