What Chris Janeway can say in an interview about
The 4% Rule & Retirement
:

    • We’ve long heard the 4% rule for distributing your assets in retirement.  Does the rule, first popularized in the 1970s still apply?

    • We’re living much longer than when this rule was first developed and we’re living with significantly higher healthcare costs AND we aren’t retiring much later, despite our longer lives.
    • Interest rates are lower, making it harder to achieve growth for conservative investors in retirement.
    • So, given all this, does the 4% rule really still apply? It ultimately depends on when someone retires. Right now, for the 65-year-old retiree in good health, we’re recommending a 3-3.5% distribution rate with market-sensitive withdrawals.
    • We can discuss what factors apply here.
