I just finished reading Work Less, Live More and have some questions.
1. I understand the Rational Investing portfolio as a great tool for those in ER but what are the best allocations for those of use who are still young dreamers and in the accumulation process? Certainly index funds but more towards a 75/25 mix with a value and growth lean?
I got some great answers here http://early-retirement.org/forums/index.php?topic=8962.0 but was looking for more of a consensus?
2. I understand the 4% withdrawal rate using the rational investing portfolio and dividends, capital gains, sell shares, etc. However, for those of us who hold are funds in 401(k)s or IRA, how do withdraw 4% annually prior to age 591/2 without triggering the 10% early withdrawal penalty?
