It may seem fairly straightforward to some people, but as the DW & I are planning for ER in either 2025/2026 @ the ages of 55/56, we are having a problem deciding which way to go, if there is even a choice. As most folks here, we saved, invested for growth and let the market work its magic. Now, as we start to make the transition to this next phase and start talking buckets and withdrawal strategies, how do you plan this? How do you know if you need to draw down your portfolio or if you can live off of the income it could throw off? We do not have pensions or annuities. We will have a hair above 2 million spread out among SEPs, Roths, Simple iras, HSAs, I-Bonds and taxable accounts. Annual expenses will be around 52,000. DW may take SS (around 18,000) @62 while I will wait until 70 (around 30,000).
Also, where is a good site for a portfolio tester to check different allocations and investments?
Vanguard has one, but it doesn’t show prior performance.
Morningstar now charges for there portfolio X-Ray.
