Not as disappointed as I am. I think (can't even remember now) I was responding the the thought of needing more than £2k a month, when your mortgage is paid off, you have no dependents, and you're retiring early.
If the OP has a big old house that requires a lot of maintenance, that could eat...
I couldn't possibly scrape by on less than £7k a month, and that's pushing it :rolleyes:
It's different for everyone, we can't guess what would be enough for you. What are you outgoings?
