Walk-on
I’ve looked at total sum (savings + insurance)
For example, if I have $500k in savings / net worth + $500k insurance, that’d put the total at $1m. I’ve planned insurance to be the target nest egg minus the amount I already have saved up

basically 10 years of wages, enough time to get settled and then some.

I'm not sure what you are asking, so I'll say just insurance

Enough to pay off the mortgage and all debt. Plus a bit to make life easier. Kids are adults now.

Depends on your age, your kids’ ages, number of kids, age of spouse, how much

You might be surprised at how many policies are portable. 9x seems like plenty

How much does one need? I’m 43 with about $800K total savings including 401K

Looks like it is portable. Just checked the handbook

Those portable policies through employers can cost a lot if you leave your job.

Enough not to have to use the logic that she’ll remarry quickly and be fine.
