Suppose an 18-year-old Soldier wishes to retire from the Army as a millionaire. She intends to contribute $10,000 to the Thrift Saving Plan (TSP) at the end of each year until she retires with $1,000,000 in that account. Would she meet her retirement goal if the Army retains her until she is at 60 years of age, assuming the TSP offer her a constant 5% annual rate of interest for her entire time of service?
Now, suppose that she would like to retire as soon as possible with $1,000,000 in her account. Assuming that nothing else changes, what is the earliest age that she can retire?
