Personally you need a bit more than £30k to retire IMHO, if you doing it early out of choice, I think £3000 a month take home about or £42,000 gross is a good minimum for retirement, if you live alone and own your own house.
Which equates to a £933,000 sustainable pension pot if you want 3% growth each year for it last indefinitely.
Thanks tricky I am listening you are also right.
You too have a good one, cheers.

fordm is right. i really would not get too wound up about certain people. there are thankfully more mature and interesting people on this board. and life is far too short. i think bobbins might agree too.
have a nice evening.
Fordm
Thanks, you're not wrong I think your advise is probably for the best I shall give it some serious thought.
On the share's side I really believe all the financial pointers and impressive positive news sentiment, will at some point translate into a further rise in price. You pays your money....
GL all
And if course when your state pension kicks in
I think its impossible to answer a question like that,
it depends on so many factors,
what kind of lifestyle you're used to, how many holidays you want going forward...
kids, grand kids etc..
30k would be ok. was looking at a little bit more and retiring abroad, its much cheaper, less taxes, better food and i could retire earlier!!!!!!!!
I was wondering, particularly aiming at the posters nearing or already retired, how much do you need to retire in comfort?
I think about 20 x the gross income your are after so £600k = £30k for instance.
A little step forward today..great to hear form JP Morgan , their view on IAG seems bullish so I reckon by summer end we could be much higher. GLA. DYOR.
I am planning to start drawing on my pension from next April, so I am hoping this gets back to £2.40 before then ... please. lol
C_k, bud, just use the filter button. I know you should always keep an open mind and see everyone's opinion by not filtering, but at some point.... let it go and ignore.
They come and they go, most of us are here for what seems forever ;-)

It's becoming clearer by the minute that trying to make a fully paid up and certified halfwit like yourself understand anything, is going to take more time than most people on this board have.
Not only myself but three or four other respected contributors have asked you to wind your neck in. I can't imagine what it feels like to be challenged and confronted by the very people you are hoping to impress. Obviously the message is not what you want to hear and clearly your actions are attributable to a hidden agenda. Possibly a shorter gone wrong or just as likely a prat that likes the sound of his own voice, that nobody usually listens to. I am sure there are plenty of other boards where you can get people to insult you without trying particularly hard as you seem to like it and keep coming back for more.
F off you head of dick's
Everyone knows IAG is cheap, yes there is risk in this sector, but surely one of the wars possibly Ukraine will end in the next 12 months, inflation on the way down across a number of countries, pax still want to travel! GL ALL, happy times ahead!!
Just landed. A domestic flight that involves traversing the Irish sea, sundezena! Aircraft is full!
I stand corrected. Thanks Fordm. I now see that in the RNS section. DYOR eh
No you are wrong, it was changed to the 29th of Feb 2026
Ummmmmmm……
February 24th 2026
Any thoughts on when the dividend will re start
Thanks
Garonne which flight is it??
Jlmth, the same would have been said of RR when it was 50p...would you have guessed it?? so the fact that you say we won't see £3 in 24 months...or £4 or indeed £5...you never know my friend. Share prices sometimes don't reflect the real worth of a company, sometimes they overshoot by miles...hope you know that. Fortunately i only need £1.90 or over...£2.20-2.50 would mean giving up work for me..forever!! GL everyone though. DYOR.
Just boarded a flight at terminal 5. Absolutely rammed and it's a Thursday afternoon. The market capitalisation was nearly double today's pre COVID so £3 I feel is achievable once the market starts behaving normally. Could be this year!
Watching the interview this morning on Bloomberg analysts are talking about three/four years to turnaround the airline, hope that doesn't affect IAG too much. My view is it will be at least two to three years before we see the likes of £3/£4.. the SP is just too sensitive to anything negative in the news.
@Casio_Kid
I appreciate that you lack the intelligence to actually make a comment without ridiculing people.
I would advise that you actually read my comment from this morning, as you clearly haven’t! I am unable to see where there were any derisory comments (feel free to look up the word derisory)
Given your lack of intelligence and integrity in conjunction with your clear lack of skills and understanding of trading, it would be pointless trying to explain to you even in the simplest of terms, I neither have the time or crayons to explain it to you and the fact that your miniscule brain would clearly not have the capacity to comprehend it.
With regards to rubbish being spouted, I would engage your tiny brain before opening your loudmouth.
I said around £!.50, you do realise that it matters not what the size of your investment is or the point drop. SP can go up or down. So if you are pinning your hopes on a large point increase then you are a bigger fool than you appear to be. I believe and quote me if I am wrong, but the SP for IAG dropped to 91p from 452 in the space of 6 months.
Now even a thicko Like you can see the difference. So stick your comments where the Sun doesn’t shine and do one.
@sundezena Its not wisful thinking at all, i hope that they start to pick up, at the moment i cant see it happening anytime soon
Your prediction of 4 or even 5 pounds its so off the mark, I very much doubt that it will ever reach £4 again.. at best maybe in 24 months you could see £2.50 maybe a little more...
They have too much debt for it to be anything more, even though that's coming down gradually you would need to see a reduction before anything really positive occurs
Jlbtmh, this will go higher my friend! Your £1.50 prediction is wishful thinking. Maybe in 20 years time it will be £1.50 after another pandemic but before that we will see £3-4-5 pounds. All IMO.
