Joe,
Congrats on getting a well balanced budget!

However, you should also consider that you will get bored if you don’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 ;-)).
