I spoke the other day about rich people whingeing that they don’t have enough to retire in luxury. In today’s news there is a 67 year old man who hates his job and wants to retire. However the poor thing only has $700K saved up. This only gives him $28K a year in interest. Poor old dear still hasn’t paid off his mortgage so how will he manage on that?
How the other half live.
4% rate of withdrawal is supposed to be “safe” for 30 years, but that’s only a 90-95% chance. So based off that around 1 in 10 or 20 people end up with nothing but social security even before the 30 years is up
