If I stop working at the end of this month and just let my wife work until retirement age.
I can get it to 99% if I work another 2 years.
The difference between 98% and 99% is 2 years. Also, you can avoid failing by spending less and thereby withdrawing less in years when the market is down.
The same software shows me being able to give my kids a lot of money when I die. Like $10m each.
I don’t know how this makes me feel. Makes me want to climb Teewinot and move to California before I get too old to be honest.
On the other hand, if I get my suburban house paid off, fixed up, top off emergency cash, fully fund kids’ college, then maybe I can start spending some of our money on a vacation or two (we didn’t take a vacation this year).
What do all of you think this delightful Friday?
