Yeah, "needing" a million plus seems excessive but $50-100k seems low. Somewhere in between is probably the right minimum number for most folks. -

I would say it depends on where they live and what they want to do when they retire. I think most of these folks saying you need a million are talking about living a relatively high end lifestyle. With a cruise or some other type of vacation every year and perhaps buying a new car every 4-6 years. If you don't need that, then SS, and a small 401k or pension is probably enough. My mom is living ok off of SS and a small pension she gets from my stepdad's employer. And that was after years of financial mismanagement, which saw them have a house with a mortgage and two other loans that used the house as collateral. Sold the house for enough to pay off all the debt with a little left over and they bought a small condo. Even with making payments on the condo, my mom still has enough to pay all the bills and save a little bit. One recommendation I do have for anyone reaching Medicare age. Look into signing up for a Medicare advantage plan. My mom signed up for it last year, and it is well worth it. -
