I discuss the long-held myth that $1 million is the universal retirement target and explore why your personal number depends on your unique circumstances and goals.

• The million-dollar retirement target originated from the 4% rule but does it account for today's economics?
• What's the impact of Inflation, healthcare costs, increased longevity, and market volatility on the million-dollar benchmark?
• Your retirement number depends on lifestyle, debt, location, family obligations, and income sources
• The danger lies in either over-saving and missing out on life now, or under-saving and risking running out of money
• Rather than focusing on someone else's benchmark, build a plan based on your expenses, guaranteed income, and personal goals
• Our 6-5-4 bucket strategy helps clients build personalized retirement plans that match their values and dreams
