Financial newbie here- single, 15 years to FIR-Normal. Have SEP-IRA with maximum contributions, now at $1.6 mill. When I use FIRECalc, I get a comfy number, but I am looking for lots of fun as well as security after retirement. Would plan on keeping my home (low taxes, low tax state, easy to maintain) but would plan on extended overseas traveling, 3-4 months at at time.
Finally freed up mortage/cc/car obligations and have $8000 after-tax dollars per month to invest for retirement and get adjusted to LWYM.
Have been reading like mad about 4%SWR, various types of investments. And, yes I will start interviewing FA soon.
However, I am sooo embarrassed about my lack of expertise. Based on the above information, what sort of things would you do with this $8000/month?
