Nice table and I'm guessing it is for a 50/50 AA. It should have a column with the worst year drop (blue in your above comment Audrey). And we should remember the end of that year was not necessarily the worst portfolio value for that year.
I just don't think any retiree should count on their ability to withstand the stress of too much portfolio decline, especially in the early years (maybe age 50 to 70). I know it was a long time ago and in a hugely different world economy, but the numbers I showed from VPW for a 60/40 AA could, I think, really happen (hope not!). That shows a 27% portfolio fall over 4 years from 1929 to 1933. Note that the nominal values were actually lower (45% drop) because of deflation! One could only imagine the headlines if we were to have a real extended depression like back then. The 2008-2009 decline was a cake walk compared to that.
And a quibble, nobody should be fooling themselves with the nominal portfolio value. Inflation adjusted value is what counts. The nominal columns in the VPW tool are worthwhile to remind us of this fact.
Do I sound like I'm preaching?
Hope not but I can scare myself with this stuff. Sweet dreams.
