So all of your "basic needs" are planned for -- including the unexpected costs of new roof, fridge, etc. They all fit perfectly in your 3-4% withdrawal scheme, etc. and you have a 99% chance of survival according to FIRECalc.
You're retired now. What do you do for "funny money"? You know, the latest tech gadget, the coolest oscillating cutoff tool, the next best 3 wood, the new iPAD 9?
Just wondering....

- Have you already planned for these in the "new roof" type of budget? Only the years you didn't need it?
- Do you have a hobby that can supply these funds?
- Do you do what you did in your (heaven forbid) w*rking life on a short-term consulting basis?
- Do you only splurge on banner market years?
- .....or do you just do without?
Just wondering....
