Thanks Roderick, I agree there is way more to consider then just the end asset number. This article has a narrow focus on accumulating a specific asset number ($1 million) by a specific age (65). Future posts will definitely take more into account such as inflation and how much you might need to prepare to spend for in retirement.

I hear a lot of people ask “how to become a millionaire in retirement” so this post was intended to ask that very specific question showing what you’ll need to save given your age and assumed rate of return.
