Don't forget, that once you retire you don't need to save anymore. That's something we often miss.
So far I'm more or less targeting using a 5% withdraw rate. I'm pretty damned sure I can at least get 8% from the SP500 and probably far more but that's a safe number. My current income is the goal which will allow me to increase my lifestyle or grow the pot. I need Tesla to 3.5x from here to get there with just my TSLA holdings. If my other stuff does well (mostly SQ) then Tesla will only need to 3x from here. If that doesn't happen then I'll work until 50 instead of 45.
What I don't have a plan for is how to invest at that point. Obviously I'd keep a chunk of Tesla if it looked like it was still running. Aside from that, dividend stocks seem pretty worthless all in all. Perhaps a portion there and the rest in standard growth.
