[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the reirement withdrawal calculators (4% SWR) use 60% equities/40% fixed income or similar scenario. So you've got your money at that allocation which will support your withdrawal rates. A portfolio just in cash will not support the withdrawals for long.

I have NO idea how I could stomach this kind of uncertainty and volatility whild being retired!!  How is one supposed to have a relaxing retirement worrying about the stock market??[/quote]

I'm very worried for my inlaws. My FIL has a pension that is in trouble, so no guarantee there.  They then have their 401K which is declining by the day.  They also still have a mortgage because they sold their NOVA house for a 700K net profit, financed 400K in a new home and invested the 700K. Bad move in hindsight, but it seemed good at the time. Even though heir mortgage is a 2.75 they are losing money in the market. They would have been better off buying the house in cash.[/quote]

I'm sorry pp, that's stressful. Life should not be this hard.[/quote]
