I've been reading a retirement book and a chapter is about the RMD on conventional IRAs. The "Uniform Distribution Table" is included that tells you the divisor to use to determine the amount of your IRA you must withdraw for each year past the age of 70½.
I put these divisors into my retirement planning spreadsheet to show me my RMD thru age 90. I was surprised to see that, just the RMD alone, generated a SWR of an average of 4.87%, ranging from 3.5% at age 70 to 6.7% at age 90.
Needless to say, this is more income that I believe I will need and also puts me close to the 33% tax bracket.
Two questions:
1. Have you considered RMD in your retirement income planning?
2. Does FireCalc take RMD into consideration?
