Say Goodbye to the 4% Rule
(Wall Street Journal, March 1, 2013)
What to do when the old math doesn't add up? This Wall Street Journal
article offers three alternatives to the 4% Rule. Two of the three have already
been discussed on this website and the third is just a variation of the safe
withdrawal rate approach. I continue to believe that the best answer to this
question is to recalculate your withdrawal budget every year using data and
assumptions that reflect your personal financial situation as advocated in this
website.
