- An “interest-only” retirement plan can fund your retirement without draining your savings, but you will need to save a lot of money to make it possible. NerdWallet crunched the numbers, and we can tell you how much you need to save every month, broken down by age, to get $50,000 every year in an “interest-only” retirement. Check out this video to learn how much you will need, in order to make it a reality.
Retirement usually involves giving up your annual salary, but you will still need an income to survive. While Social Security will cover a part of your budget, the rest of your money will most likely need to come from your savings and investments.
The median baby boomer’s 401(k) plan has a total balance of $69,900, according to Fidelity. Assuming they withdraw 3% of their savings per year, they would be left with a total of less than $2,100 to spend.
If you want bigger drawdowns, you’ll need to save up a much larger nest egg before you retire. NerdWallet crunched the numbers, and we can tell you how much you need to save now to get $50,000 every year in retirement, without taking a bite out of your principal.
First, some ground rules. The numbers assume you will retire at 65 and have no money in savings now. For investing, we assume an annual 6% return when you are saving and a more conservative 3% rate for your “interest-only” retirement. We do not factor in inflation, taxes or any additional income you may get from Social Security.

How To Earn $50K A Year In Interest For Retirement
Retirement planning is ideally a life-long process. You can start at any time, but it works best if you factor it into your financial planning from the beginning. That's the best way to ensure a safe, secure-and fun-retirement.
Remember that retirement planning starts long before you retire-the sooner, the better. Your “magic number,” the amount you need to retire comfortably, is highly personalized, but there are numerous rules of thumb that can give you an idea of how much to save.
Someone asked if I could convince him more to join our winning team, I laughed! How do you want me to convince you to earn a living. It’s totally up to you my friend, according to me with Michael O’Connor you can be able to earn massively excellent in just few days with his genius strategy he pulls.
@Adams Hooper Those embarking on adult life may not have a lot of money free to invest, but they do have time to let investments mature, which is a critical and valuable piece of retirement savings. This is because of the principle of compound interest.
@@lindaspengler5778 What if you don't know how to trade any of these?
I mean, I see your point. Some people have the money and are willing to invest. But the problem is where to?
@@fatehmaalik9133 I started up trading with Michael O'Connor with the inception of the lockdown in my country due to the covid-19 pandemic across the world and its been a profitable venture for me trading with him.
Nice breakdown. If I could change the past, I would have started investing right when I turned 18... Staring at 18 (instead of 25), if you invested 837/month, you'd end up with almost an extra million dollars by 65 using your assumptions (~$2.6M).
It's like the old Steve Martin joke; "How to be a millionaire and never pay taxes! First....get a million dollars....."
"Compound interest is the 8th wonder of the world... He who understands it, earns it; he who doesn't, pays it." - *Albert Einstein* . Love the breakdown of the investment amounts for the different age groups!

Not accounting for inflation is a huge miss here. For example, if we look at historical inflation over the last 40 years, a person making $16k a year in 1980 had the same buying power as a person making $50k today. This is more than 3x the loss of buying power.
This means that if you currently live on a $50k salary, and want to maintain that level of lifestyle, you’d need to earn upwards of $156k per year in 2060 when you retire to remain at the same level. Otherwise it would be like trying to live off $16k a year today. Definitely possible but a far cry away from a $50k lifestyle.
Yes, a complete miss on the "future value" of $50K. Hopefully, what's left of social security will help cover some of the gap.
They kind of do. They only estimate a 6% return. The S&P has a historical return of 10%. Subtract 2% for inflation and that gives 8%. So its still a conservative estimate
@@jsebby2284 that’s for the total pot though. This video specifically focuses on living off the interest alone, so my point still stands.
It’s a very different conversation if you’re living off the interest plus withdrawing a certain amount every month.
@@enigma7ic thats kind of irrelevant to my point
@@jsebby2284 it’s not though. Your point is that the return would be higher, making the final pot at retirement larger (or allowing one to retire earlier). But the whole point of this video is about getting 50k in interest out of a pot. So the return rate doesn’t have much impact here as long as you get to that 50k in interest per year.
It’s wild to see how much of an impact compounding interest has on your finances! If this doesn’t encourage you to save money then I don’t know what will.
Very simple compounding lesson. $50,000 in 2061 will not be what it seems today. It would be more helpful if you would do an example with inflation, and assume a liner career trajectory (ages 20-65, 20% promotion every 10 years, 3% salary increase other years, and just start at $40k or something reasonable).
Same with that $1M video from a week ago w/ a lifetime fixed salary of $50k....I get these need to be simple to digest. But these are very simple.
The more important video would be: "How To Earn the equivalent of $50K in todays dollars A Year In Interest For Retirement"
I love this channel. Including millennial money. Thanks for bringing transparency to our situations.
They kind of do. They only estimate a 6% return. The S&P has a historical return of 10%. Subtract 2% for inflation and that gives 8%. So its still a conservative estimate
@@jsebby2284 Thanks for your response. I agree the estimate is conservative. I still feel like $50,000 a year in 2061 isn't going to be much to live on at all. Using a 2% inflation rate, $50,000 in 2061 is worth $22,645 in 2021.
Imagine trying to make it through retirement in today's world with just $22k a year. Plus inflation still occurs during the 20-30 years (hopefully) of retirement.
Do you see what I'm getting at?
@@randym5515 youre welcome!
I do understand what youre saying - but the point is was trying to make is that the 50,000 number they give you is close to 50,000 in today's money - not in 2061 dollars. Because they have somewhat accounted for inflation in the low interest rate.
If they gave the standard average of 10% return then the total amount saved would be drastically higher which would then give a higher payment. For example - if you took the 25 year old from their example and they saved $837/month for 40 years at 10% interest that gives them a lump sum of $4.483 million. And then living off the 3% interest as in the example would allow that person to live off of around $134K per year. Thats in 2061 dollars - if we dont account for inflation. Which is obviously a lot higher than 50K
@@jsebby2284 Okay! I'm in agreement when using the 10%
Many Happy Returns to you!!
@@randym5515 and also with you! Lol
Good simple video. It's wise to plan to not get much from social security. I'll react and go a bit deeper on the simple math. That $50k could result in a very different amount of income hitting your pockets after taxes depending on how you allocate your money (IRAs, 401ks, brokerage accounts) :)

This is why I invest in dividend stocks. My dividends should exceed my SSI by the time I retire.

@@blucow6677 just buy a high yield dividend etf, it does the work for you. Buying individual stocks is a fools errand. They can cut their dividend or their stock price can tank. Diversification will prevent that from happening.
I went from stressing over divorce to becoming a successful investor in the marketplace. I have been a passive trader since 5 years ago till now, owning 3 homes and receiving about $60k monthly dividends. I would say that the greatest determinant of your destiny lies in how you react to things and not in the things themselves... great video!
Between housing costs, student loans, car costs, etc, what kind of 25 y/o has $837 leftover money every month for retirement alone?
^ At least someone else gets it. It's like "here is how to save a good amount, but first, you must be making a good amount" smh lol
I agree that not many people have the means to save the amount that the video is mentioning, BUT what should be taken away from this video is that saving is important as well as how one spends their money so compounding/investing does more work
I make about 60k a year and manage to invest $1,500 a month minimum into retirement. Its possible. Im 27
@@ViktorKrum93 out of curiosity, what do you do for a living? Do you have any side income hustles?
I did it when I was 25. Helps to be single, don’t have any kids and don’t have a car loan. Buy used and rent a room in a shared house. I have tons of cash left over and I only made $50k net at that time.
Can we get a link to that calculator?
Is the $1.5MM needed to retire purely contributions or the total balance of retirement account which includes contributions and growth?
Total ending Balance
It's contributions and growth
Call me cautious. I think having more money in your retirement is much needed. Like the video mentioned, there can be other factors or incidents that pop up that changes the calculation.
Oh my god. I love this animation video.🤩
Wow, we're still on the notion that 25 year olds plan to retire at 65? Many of the younger generations have moved on to retiring at 40!
65 or 67 for SS is pretty ludicrous if you think about it. 10 years before doing anything makes you exhausted and you can hurt your self too easily. if you dont retire by 50 id say youre wasting a good chuck of life working. retiring at 40 is very possible if your money smart early on. with a little luck in the job you have
That’s an anomaly. At lot will be working well into 70s.
Learn how to make better money choices and retire early or work until you die because social security does not pay enough to live on
Start maxing 401k and Roth IRA at 25 and you’re set.

It's not about timing the market, It's about time in the market. The best time to start investing was 20 years ago, the next best time is today!
When I saw this, I’m like “Graham Stephan we need your reaction to this!”
That compound interest is real . I made 10k in 2 months 😳.
The point is clear, but besides age at which you start saving, the interest rate also has a huge impact on the outcome. That’s so obvious yet so often (annoyingly) ignored in these kind of videos.
Nobody can predict future returns of the stock market, so they usually use inflation adjusted averages which is 6-7% historically over the last 100+ years.
I have done some research and concluded that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have the highest potentials in terms of profits. With an initial investment of $100k, I have made close to $500k the past 4months from Trading crypto...…. I am 60 and a complete newbie in the crypto world

lol, then you prob have spending prob or find another job that could make you more money.
Maybe I'm just naïve but before this whole global health crisis happened did people in their 20s really think $800 a month was impossible to save every month? It doesn't seem like that big of an amount to me as long as you have a roommate/rent a cheap apartment/live at home/etc. But again, maybe I'm just naïve. I'm definitely not in my 20s anymore...
Problem is ppl dont have enough money to spend let alone to save
Minimum wage people don’t. Anybody making over $18 an hour can save a tiny amount each month

Where are you going to find the nonexistent 6% interest savings account
I don’t think they’re saying put it in a saving account. They probably mean park that money in a mutual fund or something like that. They could have made that more clear.
Stock market kyle
In our wildest dreams
May be simple math but I'm more concerned about considering inflation in the next 40 _60 years. I'm thinking if even getting 50k a month in interest alone will be enough??
My personal preference would rather be investing that money in Quality stocks such as ones on S&P500 and diversify my investments to yield atleast the market rate of return (around 8%). If doing so, I'd prefer a tax free account.
yeah if you got 30 years too go you need to budget for withdrawing $10k per month. which is $5,500 today. And you can bump that up to 10% S&P has dont 12% over they last 30 yrs
50k a year in 2060 is gonna be equal to like 25k a year today lol
Inflation is most likely accounted for in the low return rate
At the moment, the assumed 6% interest rate sounds somewhat very optimistic for reasonably safe investments.
I'm so pleased I've finally taken control of my pension in my 30's :) Compound interest is incredible!
Where is the 6% coming from? I have to pit all my savings into the stock market?
Yes - essentially 6% is a conservative number derived from the average return from the SP500 year after year. When adjusting for inflation, you can expect a 7% return from the SP500 on average. This is strictly by just putting all your savings into one stock and is basically passive investing or autopilot investing as you won't have to do anything but be 'guaranteed' a return. Of course, there are people who invest more actively and can easily achieve higher than the average. For example, I grew my portfolio by 30% in 2020, though the stock market in 2020 was an exception due to Covid-19. That's the power of investing!
Reupload?
So what.
it's an ad for acorns, it's written
Interest from savings? Are they talking about investments or a savings account? The interest rate on a CD is right now about .3%. Not 3%!
What if you have 1.5 million laying around, Can you get 50k a year off interest alone?
Definitely.
Easily. Buy an ETF like SPYD or HDV. You’ll make >$50k on your $1.5MM investment.
@@drewconway7135 how about 1M?
Why not consider inflation in the calculation?? That's very important to consider
Because if someone isn't so knowledgable about inflation they'll think 50k years from now looks appealing and they'll probably join Acorn with FOMO. Marketing!(:
What happens when you die by before 65?
Ill just work until I'm dead.
If you have saved 1.5mil by 65. Why dont you just spend 100k/year to live frivolously after retired?
Right! I wouldn't mind touching the principal at that age. You could definitely spend more than $50,000 per year at 65 with $1.5 mil saved. Travel the world, go on cruises, etc
because no one has a crystal ball on what medical expenses you might have or emergencies and life expectantcy is around 86-87 years of age, so you need your savings and investment to at least carry you through that age unless you have alot of wonderful offspring willing to take you in and not get tired of you.
@@johnnyeatworld Exactly this, unless you live in Canada with great health care and social benefits, 1.5 million won't get you far. And once you blow it, good luck getting it back at that age. Life expectancy is going up these days - you never know how old you'll live and need the funds to keep you going.
How they came up with only 3% when you retire, but 6% when you're investing?
Risk off during old age saul
This video is ludicrously short and thus doesn't explain a lot. It assumes the viewer in familiar with a lot of investment strategy, which kind of makes such an entry-level video pointless. So, the 6% assumes stock-heavy investing. The 3% assumes the retiree has moved his/her money overwhelmingly into cash, bonds, and the like, so lower returns, but less volatility.
3% is the safe withdrawal rate.... to withdraw $50K a year without touching the principal $, so it can continue earning interest/compounding.
6% is the rate of return assumption based on the historical data of how the market has performed
@@fofita17 they did not say withdrawal. They said it will earn 3% interest.
@@saulgoodman2018 As people get older, many of them will move their investments from stocks to something safer like bonds. That is why they lowered the return on interest after retiring.
Great, now what are we going to save with🤔 We don’t get a UBI and we barely got $600. Millions of us are out of work, some who were still recovering from 2008, others got denied unemployment for no reason and before the pandemic, you needed to be 6 figure in debt to get a 5 figure job💯 I’m asking for myself and a friend?
Easier said than done...(depending who you are)
I thought it states $500k
Assumption: Savings rates will be higher than they have ever been since 1995, when the 5 year CD averaged around 6%
Get bent, Nerdwallet. This is so outrageous.
Don’t u think the buying power of 1.7 million and an annual return of 50,000 will be so little in say 30 years, it will maybe be just enough to live
If you consider that the average rate of return for the stock market is 10% and they only used 6% - that more than covers the difference from inflation
I'm willing to bet you can do a lot better than this video investing $500 every month in 5 different small cap stocks.
50k a yr whn yor 65 tht will be equivalent to like 15k yr 2dys mony
With the average inflation rate of 2.5% factored into this equation, you would need a whopping $2,584,600 at retirement. That is if you are 30 years old today in order to live off of $50k a year at 65. Therefore, you would need to invest: $1,815 monthly starting on your 30th birthday.
And average return rate for the S&P 500 is 10% though - not 6.
So they do kind of count for inflation
I see your assumption being 6% now and 3% after retirement. So this is all based on 6% interest on your savings which is the current rate but who knows what the economy is going to be in 40years? So wouldn't it be to wise to assume that economy is going to tank and we should instead save higher?
The market has returned over 8% adjusted for inflation since the inception which has been through war world II, dot com, 9/11, covid-19, just to name a few. So 6% is pretty conservative.
@@ryanhoang1982 When you say since the inception of the market, you're talking about when the stock market was originally established back in the 18th century (I believe), correct?
MONEY MAKE MORE MONEY AHHHHHH SAVE ME LORD GIVE ME THE MONEY I PRAISE YOU
JOEBAMA
Yes, but what happens when the market crashes????? Dollar collapses????
I've gone through several crashes. They never last more than 6 months to a year. Nobody saving for retirement needs their money that soon. Most people do poorly in the stock market because they panic sell at the wrong time and then leave their money out of the market as it climbs back up to new highs. Perfect example, last year S&P 500 started out around 3400, tanked to 2300, and then climbed all the way up to 3800 in a span of a year. You'd be up around 15% by doing nothing.
