Anyone else terrified of the seemingly insurmountable task of saving enough for retirement? I know we are lucky compared to many but it sometimes feels impossible that we can save enough.
Our current situation
- mid 40s in age
- married, one child 10 years away from starting college
- 30k in 529 plan
- 470k in IRAs and 401k
- 90k in non-taxed advantaged brokerage account
Many retirement calculators say I need millions to retire and that college is going to costs 250k... I just don't think we can get to those numbers despite maxing two IRAs and one 401k a year.
What do you do to calm yourself down and keep plugging away?
