I retired early two years ago. I based it upon the trinity study. However, my time horizon is more like 40-50 years - not 30. I've taken down my withdrawal rate to 2% of liquid assets (stocks/bonds/cash). I have about 25% cash because these valuations are ridiculous regardless of what Warren Buffet says.
I'm starting to have concerns that that isn't low enough of a withdrawal rate. I don't see how we don't have a major issue like 2008 given the debt and current valuations. What am I missing? Am I wrong about the debt being a problem?
