Transcript

Here's how much you need to invest every single month by age to reach $1 million at retirement. Starting from oldest to youngest at a 10% annual rate of return. If you're age 60, you need $12,900 a month to retire a millionaire. If you're age 50, it drops down to $2,400 a month and at age 40, 750 a month. This is where it starts getting good. If you're age 30, you need to invest $265 a month to retire at 65 with a million dollars. But the one that we've all been waiting for, everybody who's in their 20s, you need to invest $95 per month to reach a million dollars at retirement. For this calculation, I use the 10% annual rate of return and retirement age of 65 years old. I do this at no cost so that follow button really, really helps.
