I am leaving the forum. So long, farewell. [mod edit]

Step back and see what’s happening here. Swallow hard and see what you are doing in this thread. Completely off topic and incendiary.

You can’t be wrong. Can you. You all were wrong and now you can’t accept that. Your usual passive aggressive response falls on deaf ears.

No you turned the thread into a farce with your off topic response. Own it.

Completely off topic. Be better. This adds nothing.

The shade tree electricians on here took a guess on my problem. They were all WRONG. Now they can’t believe they were wrong and talking stupid. Give it up boys.

I remember reading posts maybe on here or elsewhere when questioned about what sign folks were waiting for to go longer and the response was “I’ll know it when I see it”. I think they just saw it.

If you really want to play around with withdrawal strategies, download FI Calc. They have 13 different strategies in a drop down menu and explain each one. Within seconds you can see the results from each one.

We do transfers from time to time. I just initiate all of them from Fidelity’s website with multiple destinations and accounts. Push or pull, it doesn’t matter. They all happen same day and there is no charge.

It’s not pipe tape. They are outdoor rated cables and have been successfully in use for three years.

I have never had an advisor and I have received free TT for years.
