Also, do you have golf cart insurance, home insurance, sink whole insurance, flood insurance (hurricane stuff), etc.? Any other surprises in costs in your experience? I looked in a lot of places and the answers are different wherever you look. I want to understand the categories and the approximate costs. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

You have received some good advice from other posters. another thought for you is "How do you wish to live"?
You will find in many articles pertaining to retirement planning that one of the most over looked items that wreck retirement budgets is "the cost of eating out"
so the question triggers another question "how much cooking will you do after you retire?
My wife and I share cooking duties for reasons of our choosing.
