In terms of how much you should have in investments by a certain age, the answer can vary depending on your income, financial goals, and personal circumstances. However, financial advisors often suggest benchmarks to give a general sense of whether you're on track. Here's a typical guideline:
By Age 30:Aim to have 1x your annual income saved or invested.
Example: If you're earning $70,000 a year, you should ideally have about $70,000 invested by 30.
By Age 35:Aim for 2x your annual income.
Example: If you're earning $70,000, you should target around $140,000 by age 35.
By Age 40:Aim for 3x your annual income.
Example: With an income of $70,000, this would mean $210,000 by age 40.
