Sources of funding retirement

[seraphim]

About 75% pension / 25% investment - but we could do with no investment income if necessary. We withdraw less than 2% a year for adventure and travel purposes. Pensions pay for our needs and more basic wants.

We don't differentiate between sales and income. In tax deferred accounts, everything reinvests, and we sell bonds or equities accordingly when we want to add to our pensions.

Don't participate in SSI

And once again, those who live off rental property income get marginalized....

To be fair, I don't think it was the OP's intention to marginalize anyone. He did ask if he had forgotten a bucket.

1. SS is about 10%

2. Income from your investments are about 40%

3. The sale of investments 50%

Indeed a little scary. Years of tracking has helped us see that this is not as scary as journalists try to tell us.
