What Age to Retire?

Recently read a threat where everyone commented on a number that would be enough to retire.

From what I gather, having $4-$6 million in the bank account and investing all of it in the S&P results in an average ROI of 8% per year.

Given that my magic number is $4,000,000 and I want to work in investment banking, what Job Title and at what age can I retire?
