  • Dave Ramsey recently made headlines by encouraging his listeners to take 8% withdrawal rates in retirement. Many criticized him for it. Suze Orman isn't even recommending the 4% rule, she encourages 3%. Who's right?

      The decision on when to pick an advisor is a very personal one. I take guidance from ‘ Monica Mary Strigle ‘ to meet my growth goals and avoid mistakes, she's well-qualified and her page can be easily found on the net.

    Why isn’t Social Security factored in? I know it varies but it’s income that should factor into that $80k.

    If you need your RMDs to live, 4% works until you become older and need to take a higher %.
    If you have big Roth IRAs and higher SS, then most of your income may be tax free.

      @@scmsean they're actually not quite as high profit as a 1% management fee which is what most retirees are paying over the balance of their retirement. Only a big deal in the absence of value. Annuities do two things that no other investment can do: guarantee you'll never run out of money and allow you to spend more money than you would by using the stock market approach alone. If those things seem scammy to you, then you should, against the advice of dozens of Nobel laureates from MIT, Harvard and elsewhere, keep putting every last dime of your retirement savings into the stock market.

    I retired at 56. Now 70. Been using the 3% rate, with the intent to exceed inflation over time, while increasing my assets. My portfolio now stands 15% greater than inflation over time. Due to personal issues, healthcare aid costs will escalate as my wife and I near our 80s. We'll have the funds to address this.

    When dealing with the subject of financial advice, the concept of "caveat emptor" (buyer beware) rings true. Everyone's situation is different and these financial "rules of thumb" are simply a starting point for discussion. Every now and then, one of these "financial gurus" make such an outlandish statement, such as Dave's 8 % withdrawal rate, that the internet blows up.
    If you talk with a financial advisor, and they do not first ask about your goals in retirement, then you might want to seek additional opinions. Do you want to travel the world? Do you want to leave a legacy to your children? How is your health? These things matter.

    What's wrong with adjusting or alternating years. 3% year followed by a 4% and worked up to 8% on great years and worked back down over a next five years till you go back to 3%. I can't foresee myself every actually retiring bc I do like work but at same time, slowing down would be nice eventually

    This is why you're my favorite person who covers these topics online. I love Ramsey's 'get out of debt' approach; and I love that you actually provide metrics to this debate on the withdraw amount. And, most importantly, I dont love lifetime annuities but at the same time, they're a great HEDGE investment. Lowest investment with highest return. They're essentially a pension....and everyone either hates them or loves them; you provide them in their just place - a guarantee with the lowest investment costs (and the most limited withdraw scenarios). Thank you for opening peoples' eyes to options!
