He expects to receive $18,000 per year from Social Security in today's dollars.

Based on his family history, Christian expects that he will reach the age of 95. If Christian currently earns $80,000 per year and he expects his raises to equal the inflation rate, how much does he need at retirement to fulfill his retirement goals
