[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I look at it from the income perspective. DH has just started taking the government pension, which turns out to be 80k. I will get $55k in SS at 70. We have an income/dividends estimate from our investments on our monthly statements of around $70k. And I include drawing down 3% of our assets (excluding home equity). [/quote] DP. I'm curious. Are you saying you will live on $205K (80K + 55K + 70K) + the 3% of investments?[/quote] Yes, that’s the plan. The 3% brings it to around $400k. Pension and SS have COLAs. Given market growth taking 3% doesn’t mean you are depleting to $0. And we may not need all of it, although at the moment we earn quite a bit more than that. Curious why this seems unusual? [/quote]
