Have you figured out how much money you need for retirement yet? If you answered "Yes", then you're preparing for your post-working years. But even if you answered "No", there's no need to sound the alarm. Would you believe that 36% of today's successful retirees never calculated how much they would need for retirement? That's the result of a new exclusive survey by MoneyTips.com.

After we analyzed the data, we got some of the top social influencers in personal finance and wealth to comment on the findings, which you can see in the infographic here.
