Emergency funds: six months (it's the only money I have in a taxable account)
Debt: 136k on a rental property with a 3.25% fixed rate mortgage (there are 8 years of regular payments remaining)
Tax status/rate: single, 15% federal, 5.75% state
Age: 42
Current assets: 137k in Fidelity government 457b, 143k in Fidelity 403b, 6k in Vanguard Roth IRA
Current contributions: maxing out both the 457b and 403b in Fidelity Spartan low cost index funds, contributing to defined benefit pension plan
I want to be able to retire at age 50 (or earlier). I should remain in the same tax bracket in retirement (roughly ~35k/year for living expenses, which should cover health/dental insurance). From age 50-65, I plan on living off the rental income of ~$12k/year, the 457b, and perhaps Substantionally Equal Periodic Payments from the 403b. Starting at age 65, I'll be able to begin taking the full pension benefit, which will start around 37k/year with annual increases indexed to inflation. Then I'll begin social security payments at around age 70.
What do you think of this early retirement plan? Any feedback would be much appreciated.
