It really depends on your spending habits and other assets, do you own your house, cars etc outright? Have you done all the overseas travel you ever wanted to do?
Your lifestyle ......... restaurants, raging all night, smoker/drinker?? Are you prepared to downsize that big mansion or move to a cheaper area (cheaper areas are usually also the ones that have dark skies !!!)
I think the amount needed is over estimated because the superfunds and government don't want you to retire!!!
It is a widely accepted fact that astrophotographers need to work 5 years longer than visual astronomers to maintain their living standard!
