Only accredited investors have the ability to invest in hedge funds. In order to become an accredited investor, you must have at least $200,000 in earned income in each of the past two years ($300,000 for couples). There must also be a reasonable assumption that the same trend will continue during the current year. Another way to become an accredited investor is to have at least a $1 million net worth, minus the value of your primary residence. You can meet that requirement either on your own or together with a spouse.

How Long $1mm Lasts in Retirement

Methodology We analyzed data on average expenditures for seniors, cost of living and investment returns to determine how many years of retirement a $1 million nest egg would cover in cities across America.

First, we looked at data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on the average annual expenditures of seniors. We then applied cost of living data from the Council for Community and Economic Research to adjust those national average spending levels based on the costs of each expense category (housing, food, healthcare, utilities, transportation and other) in each city. Using this data, SmartAsset calculated the average cost of living for retirees in the largest U.S. cities.

We assumed the $1 million would grow at a real return (interest minus inflation) of 2%. Then, we divided $1 million by the sum of each of those annual numbers to determine how long $1 million would cover retirement expenses in each of the cities in our study. Cities where $1 million lasted the longest ranked the highest in the study.
