I have a great financial planner. One of our first meetings he asks about retirement and end of life goals such a preservation of capital, inheritance, legacy, charity etc... My single goal is to bounce the check to the undertaker.

Quoted from wtatumjr:

SS is taxable but if you rely on it alone you will pay little tax. It's when you add other income like a 401k things can get worse.
I bought a resort property years ago and rented it out to pay for it. When I retired I moved to the beach property.
The one surprise for me is how little income I need in retirement as I owe nothing for housing or cars. So just because you might need $120k household income now you won't need anything near that in retirement- if you can stand not having that new car.

One of my largest pre retirement expenses is the funding of my retirement. Another discontinuing expense.

I have a few years but I assume the switch from save to spend will be gradual and not sudden.

I've always rembered a simple rhyme that I heard at a retirement seminar at the beginning of my career. "ownership pays more than loanership". This was specifically talking about long term market investment.
