Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I am seeking advice regarding recommendations for our asset allocation in our retirement accounts.
We are Homer (71) and Marge (62).
Our pre-tax non-investment income is:
$36K Homer's Social Security
$4K non-cola pension
$28K Marge's part-time job. Her SS will be about $24K at age 64.
$5K small business (Homer consulting, 1099)
We pay estimated taxes of 20% on SS, pension, small biz. Marge has taxes (and some excess) withheld.
We take $60K/yr from Homer's tIRA. We [over] pay estimated taxes of 20% on those withdrawals. Our state tax rate is about 2%.
We pay for ObamaCare at the unsubsidized rate of $10K. We have $15K in our HSAs.
One of our goals is to have 7 years of projected withdrawals in bonds/cash.
Planned death ages are Homer 90 and Marge 96.
Based on the table (image) below, what would you recommend we do?
Roth conversions? More stocks? More bonds? More stocks for Marge and more bonds for Homer? Should we have more/less than a 7 year withdrawal cushion?
What do you recommend for a withdrawal strategy?
