Have you factored in old age costs? Lawn care or household help when it gets to be too much for you to handle on your own. I didn't factor that and am now thinking I will regret that as I'm currently watching my mom start to decline and need more help.
Also increasing medical costs is part of the equation I guess. Aging is a pain. Hence I'm trying to balance retirement with some life left vs earning some more to make things smoother. Having said that, I sort of did take that into account.
