For those who are in FIRE, but not fortunate enough to pay 100% of your expenses from interest or pension or SS and have to do systematic withdrawals from your accounts - how do you decide what assets/funds to sell?
I've read that you can have monthly automatic withdrawals from your IRA or 401k, but is that done by equal amounts from all funds held?
Or do you specify how much to sell and from what assets each time you 'liquidate' holdings?
If so, how do you decide what holdings to sell?
And does that cause you to 'rebalance' on your own?
And if you sell off after tax assets do you incur more taxes by rebalancing or do you sell off in equal portions to maintain your balanced portfolio?
