    I think the expectation is that you will retire at 75 and die by 80, so having 5 years of salary to fade into oblivion with sounds right.

    And better to have just a bit extra, too, so that your leftover funds can pay off all the medical debt incurred while dying so your family doesn’t inherit it.
