Did I say I was bullet-proof? No, I’m just a passive investor. Boring.audreyh1, What is that style, please? I’m curious. I think I recall elsewhere that you use a fixed withdrawal % and park excess cash for use in the down years. What else makes you bullet-proof?
I just picked an AA I thought I could stick with during ups and downs and I rebalance usually just once a year at the beginning of the year when I take my withdrawal. That’s it.
I consider this a very low-maintenance mostly hands off approach. I’m not interested in tracking any economic data and acting on it or trolling for a quickie opportunity or in doing technical analysis. I didn’t want any system that required me to watch anything or guess the future.
My goal was to be able to ignore the markets all the time if I wanted to. To be able to take off on a long trip and be blissfully ignorant of market happenings.
