I thought the poll was to reflect retirement income only ie not to include any money received from wages. I count SS, pension and 4% of our retirement nest egg.
We all spend our money in such different ways that it's almost a non factor to compare incomes of any two families or individuals.
How often do you see the very rich drive a simple sedan and others drive cars way over their means?

Thus far almost two thirds that have responded are below the $85 K figure.

If wages are excluded then the poll is somewhat meaningful...
