Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I finished up our 2019 spending, an expensive year with moving south 750 miles, buying/selling a house, some reno/upgrades and 90%+ new furniture.
So I moved on to our 2020 plan, and it's so unlike anything that's come before I thought I'd share. It's because of Roth conversions, and much higher medical expenses now that we're both retired.
We paid some shockingly high taxes during our peak earning years when I couldn't do anything about it, but nothing like this - voluntarily this time!
I am sure others here are in the same spending boat, but it's new to me. And my spending after age 70 will be much improved, at least that's the plan.
