How much can you actually spend in retirement without running out of money? That’s today on Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast 604 with Joe Anderson, CFP® and Big Al Clopine, CPA. Longtime listener E-Dog built a fifty-year backtest spreadsheet to call out Big Al and prove the famous four percent rule is way too cautious. Hot stuff “Donna Summer” wonders if her biggest problem with her $13 million dollar portfolio is going to be the distributions she’ll be required to take from it and how to manage them. “Hansel and Gretel” in Minnesota are trying to figure out now what a lot of good savers never do: how to permit themselves to spend their $4.3 million dollar portfolio? James in Texas needs a spitball on how much to convert to Roth before Social Security and Medicare kick in, and Mark needs a spitball on whether he should save for retirement to his pre-tax 401(k) or his post-tax Roth.
