For those who have ERd, if you calculated your safe withdrawal rate beforehand, what was it when you retired?
But who can tell, when we may be facing hyperinflation, deflation, L shaped recessions, and Armageddon?
Retiring is pretty scary these days! Reminds me of my first high dive back in 1957. The pool looked like it was a million miles below me. I was absolutely terrified but took a leap of faith (literally) and made the dive anyway.
I hear the water's fine, though.

What Audrey said.
When I ER'd, my 'SWR' was about 2.6%. Since then I've realized that no one has a SWR, they have a WR. My WR is above 3% now and I hope it is S.
