    The answer to "can you retire" depends on the level of income you can expect to receive in retirement (pension, Social Security, IRA and/or 401(k) distributions, other investment income), and your anticipated expenses, especially health care - do you qualify for Medicare or Medicaid, will you receive medical benefits from your employer in retirement, or will you have to carry your own medical policy? Work up a budget and see how much draw down from investements or retirement savings you might have to come up with each month. Do you have enough to cover through age 95 or so?
