Been contemplating, fussing over, weighing options, and fearfully considering pulling the trigger. Thought I’d work till 65 (60 now) but work environment is growing less palatable daily.
Found this website through another forum and have been grateful for the wisdom and insIght of those who post after I’ve spent some significant time lurking. Great aspect of this site is 16 plus years of history and the pre- and post- ER comments from folks who were contemplating ER, pulled the trigger, and have been living with it for a number of years.
DW is okay with ER but enjoys the freedom of spending limit (or no) she currently has. In retirement, Estimate 200k spending all in with pretty good flexibility.
Have obsessed over various online retirement calculators including Firecalc, I-Orp, RFP, and any other one available including Personal Capital’s. Thanks largely to this board, i have found more to add to my obsession activities.
So, the numbers:
Td401k 3200 tax deferred (70/30)
Company stock 500k after capital gains (net) to be invested on retirement
Investments 700k (60/40) Cap gains is taxable.
Roth 100k
300k cash
Everything I run has high probabilities of success. Biggest uncertainties are medical and LTC excluding predictive return estimates. This site has been like a firehose of info on conversions, managing taxable income, and insurance to get to Medicare.
So, can I?
