To your point. We're in a decade long bull market some folks predict another decade of lower returns and probably a recession. If or when we get a 30-40% pullback how do you feel? If that happens your first year of retirement what's your contingency plan?Thanks for all the replies!
It definitely give us more to think about and help to not overlook something.
The current volatility of the market makes it difficult to be confident in pulling the plug.
I looked closer at the FIREcalc and as of right now it gives 87% success, when just a few days ago it was 78%, and about a month ago it gave 92%...
Were going to have to look closer at our 80-20 ratio, we don't have individual stocks, just mutual funds and 20% bonds
100% success through FIREcalc doesn't look too far out of reach
My opinion is you are too early to pull the plug but not too early to plan. Good luck.
