What drives the best financial planning decisions? In this episode, Ben Felix and Mark McGrath sit down with Ben Mathew, a PhD in economics from the University of Chicago and author of Economics: The Remarkable Story of How the Economy Works. The discussion explores the lifecycle model of economics, a powerful yet underutilized framework for financial planning, and contrasts it with traditional approaches like safe withdrawal rates (SWR). Ben Mathew shares insights into the lifecycle model, its origins, and its practical applications in aligning financial decisions with personal goals over a lifetime. We also dig into Ben's innovative financial planning tool, TPAW (Total Portfolio Allocation and Withdrawal) Planner, designed to bring the lifecycle model into practice. While the discussion delves into the complexities of financial planning, it's packed with actionable insights for listeners seeking smarter, evidence-based strategies. Join us for a deep dive into the lifecycle model and discover how it compares to traditional safe withdrawal rates.

He explains the concept of safe withdrawal rates, a vital strategy for ensuring your money lasts throughout your retirement.

He introduces the traditional 4% rule, developed by William Bengen in 1994, and explores its relevance in today's economic landscape, emphasizing the need for flexibility and adaptability. Adam also covers the Go-Go, Slow-Go, and No-Go years, explaining how spending typically changes over the course of retirement and the impact of long-term care costs.

Welcome to this edition of The Planning for Retirement Podcast. This is Volume 1 of this new series, The Whiteboard Retirement Plan, where Kevin breaks down a real-life client case for “Bob and Jennifer” in plain English. The goal is to help answer the question, “Can I fire my boss?” He discusses the savings rate, income sources, and withdrawal rate, highlighting the need for adjustments and planning opportunities. The episode ends with a discussion on the impact of early Social Security claiming and survivor benefits. Bob and Jennifer are in a good position to retire, but there are some risks they need to address. Long-term care planning is important, as 70% of people over 65 will need some form of long-term care. They should consider whether to self-fund or get long-term care insurance. Tax planning is also crucial, as 80% of their assets are in tax-deferred accounts. They should explore Roth conversions to minimize taxes and leave a financial legacy to their children. Finding purpose in retirement is essential, and they should consider how to spend their free time to maximize their life experiences with their loved ones. Lastly, they need to have an optimized investment strategy to spin off income for the rest of their lives, while at the same time address a potential bear market or recession. Takeaways Diversification is crucial in investment portfolios to mitigate the risk of selling the wrong thing at the wrong time. Interest rate cuts by the Fed can impact the stock market and the economy, but volatility and corrections are normal in investing. The Whiteboard Retirement Plan is a straight forward analysis on whether or not a client can fire their boss and retire comfortably. Early Social Security claiming can result in reduced benefits, affecting both the retiree and potential survivor benefits. However, in some cases you may consider collecting early to offset a high rate of withdrawal on investments. Adjustments to your plan are necessary to ensure a sustainable retirement income. Long-term care planning is important for all retirees to consider, as it can have a significant impact on your loved ones, particularly your surviving spouse and children. Tax planning, including Roth conversions, can help minimize taxes and maximize your financial legacy to the next generation. Finding purpose in retirement is crucial for a fulfilling and meaningful retirement.

Financial expert and author Ric Edelman has stated that, in his opinion, anyone following Dave Ramsey's 8% retirement withdrawal strategy is…doomed! The 4% rule has been the distribution rates' gold standard for over 30 years. However, Suze Orman said that she wouldn't use the 4% rule on any level. David touches upon what he considers a “massive unintended consequence” of adopting Suze Orman's 3% withdrawal rate in retirement. According to David, there isn't a winner between a 3%, a 4%, and an 8% retirement withdrawal strategy. He gives a couple of examples that illustrate why that's the case. David believes that, to get the best bang for your buck with the highest success rate over a 30-year retirement, a guaranteed lifetime income annuity is – almost always – the best way to go.

One of the things Dave Ramsey is famous for is telling his audience that they can take sustainable 8% distributions from their stock market portfolios in retirement. David has two issues with this recommendation: it ignores reams of academic data on sustainable withdrawal rates, as well as the concept of sequence of return. David points out the potential repercussions of following Ramsey's approach. According to the mainstream financial community, 4% is the actual “golden rule” for sustainable distribution rates in retirement. Ramsey has long complained about the 4% rule being a pretty expensive way to go… David illustrates a key problem with an 8% withdrawal rate and discusses the role of a volatility shield. David explains that the money you can put in a volatility shield has to grow tax-free and allow for tax-free distributions. It's possible to increase your sustainable withdrawal rate on your stock portfolio to as high as 8%, with a 95% chance of never running out of money – David explains how. On an apple-to-apples basis, guaranteed lifetime income annuities give you a much higher income than living by the 4% rule in retirement. Following this Dave Ramsey strategy? David believes that it's likely going to force you to run out of money 15-20 years in advance of life expectancy.

The notion of a 'safe withdrawal rate,' being a real amount that can be taken out of savings in retirement each year without a significant risk of running out of money in some window of time, goes back to a 1994 paper by Bengen which enshrined the "4-percent rule." In this podcast, the Inflation Guy discusses improvements to that rule - including some that he popularized - especially when it comes to the need to add some inflation-proofing to an asset mix that needs to keep up with inflation! The IG still prefers personal liability-driven-investing, but investment do-it-yourselfers who like rules of thumb need to know that there are easy ways to improve on the 4% rule...and some not-so-obvious pitfalls in using it blindly! The Inflation Guy also responds to an excellent listener email about last week's episode.

Most traditional retirement plans in the past were created by making a projection that has taken into account assumptions around inflation, rates of return, and longevity and putting it all together to see if there is money left over to last you the remainder of your life. Although this is a good starting point, it doesn't take into account any unforeseen circumstances. In this episode, I will be sharing some other methods retirement planners are using these days to create a safer outcome for your retirement.

#85: Recently I've really started to notice the impact of inflation on daily spending. Have you?At first, it was just 1-2 things. Then it was a handful. Now it seems like everything is noticeably more expensive. (Assuming it's even in stock in the first place.)Gas. Groceries. Takeout. Toiletries. Utilities. Car maintenance. Healthcare/supplies. Pre-school. Appliances.Everything seems to cost more and you just can't buy as much with the same budget anymore.This got me wondering about how recent macroeconomic changes over the last 6 months might impact retirement safe withdrawal rates and asset allocations.The macro changes I'm referring to are: Inflation at a 40-year high. Stock valuations doubling since their pandemic lows. Interest rates that are scheduled to increase a minimum of 3 times this year.In these times, what should investors and retirees be doing to defend their portfolio values and retirement security?This week, I asked my friend Karsten Jeske (aka “Big ERN”) to help us make sense of all that is going on right now in terms of macro trends…and what it all means for safe withdrawal rates and asset allocation. We had a wide-ranging, nearly 2-hour(!) discussion full of insights and tips that you won't want to miss.We discuss:Major recent macroeconomic changes that (early) retirees may want to factor into their retirement planningWhat new safe withdrawal rate % retirees should consider right nowWhether investors should potentially update their asset allocation given current macro trendsWhether he believes asset prices are overvalued right nowAlternative assets (like cryptocurrencies) and their merits / concernsHow much cash he believes is advisable to hold right nowDo you plan to make changes to your asset allocation or safe withdrawal rate in light of recent macroeconomic changes?

Our guest on the podcast today is William Bengen. Bill has been a prolific researcher of retirement planning matters over his career, and he pioneered the exploration of safe withdrawal rates with his groundbreaking 1994 research that gave birth to what's now called the 4% rule. Bill is the former owner of Bengen Financial Services, an independent Registered Investment Advisor that he launched in 1989, after his family sold the soda-bottling business that he had helped manage. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in aeronautics and astronautics from MIT. Bill retired from his financial planning practice in 2013 but continues to conduct research on retirement planning and withdrawal rates. We're excited to have him here today.BackgroundBioIn-Retirement Withdrawal Rates and Asset Allocation“The Originator of ‘the 4% Rule' Thinks It's Off the Mark.

Consideration of retirement income and how RMDs figure in
In this week’s podcast, David Blanchett explains the importance of flexibility concerning retirement withdrawal rates, Christine Benz talks about how a Biden tax proposal could change how investment gains are taxed for some, Russ Kinnel discusses how some funds in Morningstar’s new world large-stock value category have benefitted from a recent change, and we share a high-quality company in the world of powersports that’s considered a bargain.
When closing in on retirement, we all want to make sure that we can live on the amount of money that we have saved/invested at that time. One of the biggest determining factors in not outliving your money is the idea of the withdrawal rate. We have to be reasonable with the percentage of our total assets that we choose to live off of in retirement. Too much, and your nest egg could start moving in the wrong direction, and it may become harder to make your money last for the long haul. Today's discussion of the withdrawal rate will help you to make the best decisions possible and understand how this one metric can swing your retirement lifestyle one way or the other. We will discuss: 1. What a withdrawal rate is 2. The importance of investment returns when setting a withdrawal rate 3. How the amount of our nest egg impacts our withdrawal rate choice Begin your path to financial freedom today: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjyCApAbHBN0Jtw5bAehbRg?sub_confirmation=1 Don't forget to like, subscribe, and leave comments below as I would love your feedback.

For the first part of today’s discussion, we are joined by Don Coletti from The Central Bank of Canada. He is here to talk about their upcoming recommendation for a monetary policy framework for the next five years which is incorporating public feedback into its development through the survey, Lets Talk Inflation. From there, we touch on some favourite books, Starbucks’s stored value card liabilities, the benefits of keeping inheritance in a separate account, new standards for financial planners and advisors proposed by the FSRA, and why SoftBank did not pile into call options and cause the rally in tech as the previous headlines suggested. Heading into the meat of the episode next, Ben shares some findings from a model he built inspired by a program written by one of this show’s listeners that tests historical safe withdrawal rates for factor loaded portfolios. Ben gets into a series of papers that speak to the diversification benefit of adding factors in this section too. He wraps up the discussion with a spanner in the works though, which looks at this question through the lens of time-series momentum rather than cross-sectional momentum. Here, he considers trend following as another type of diversification that has shown favourable impacts on portfolio returns in the data that exists. As usual, we wrap up with our bad advice of the week, hearing Cameron relate the bizarre ‘findings’ of a Forbes article claiming that active management beats passive investing in the face of piles of data to the contrary!

#36: Last week, we dove headlong into the wonky but uber-crucial topic of retirement safe withdrawal rates.My conversation with Karsten Jeske, PhD – a former professor, Fed economist, quantitative finance researcher, and early retiree – focused last week on sequence of returns risk and how to estimate your safe withdrawal rate in early retirement.Our conversation was so action-packed that I had to break it up into two episodes, so this week we continue our discussion and focus on how to mitigate sequence of returns risk during early retirement.We discuss:How to adjust your withdrawal rate and rebalance your portfolio in response to market conditionsHow to critique the common advice that the returns risk in the first 10 years of retirement determine success or failure in all retirementWhy sequence of returns risk is a “zero sum game” between retirees vs. savers, and why investing strategies for these two groups should therefore inversely mirror each otherConcrete actions investors can take, during their accumulation phase and during retirement, to reduce sequence of returns riskHow early retirees can use rental real estate to reduce sequence of returns riskWhat is the lowest historical safe withdrawal rate that entirely eliminated sequence of returns riskHow coronavirus might impact your safe withdrawal analysis and early retirement prospectsWhat actions do you plan to take to fortify your safe withdrawal rate?

#35: When it comes to early retirement the most important (and difficult) thing you have to grasp is your safe withdrawal rate.FIRE bloggers rave about “the shockingly simple math behind early retirement,” but they almost never talk about the shockingly un-simple math behind safe withdrawal rates.So this week, I invited Karsten Jeske, PhD – a former professor, Fed economist, quantitative finance researcher, and early retiree – to the podcast to share insight on how to estimate your safe withdrawal rate in retirement.This is the most important financial planning concept early retirees must grasp to stay retired and guarantee they never have to go back to a j-o-b.What you’ll learn:The fatal flaw of the “4% rule” and why you might easily run out of money in retirement if you follow it blindlyThe importance of analyzing the conditional probability of failure based on the actual year you retireWhy sequence of returns risk and safe withdrawals rates are inextricably linkedWhy the business cycle in the year you retire is crucial to your safe withdrawal analysis, plus how to use the Shiller CAPE ratio to estimate your safe withdrawal rateHow Social Security factors into your safe withdrawal analysisWhy sequence of returns risk is front-loaded for early retirees but back-loaded for wage earnersHave you analyzed your safe withdrawal rate?

ESI of ESI Money shares three steps to determine if you have enough to retire. Episode 977: Three Steps to Determine if You Have Enough to Retire by ESI of ESI Money on Safe Withdrawal Rates for Retirement ESI Money is written by "ESI", a 50-something retiree. The site is basically a list of what's allowed him to become financially independent and how you can implement those successes in your life.

How long will my ARF Income last? This week we continue our analysis of how we can actually go about drawing and maximising our pension and ARF incomes when we reach the age where we start to 'spend' instead of 'accumulate' our money. For me at least this is the fun bit for us. We don't have pensions because we want a pension, we have pensions because we want what it can potentially give us. Ultimately what it will hopefully give each and every one of us is financial independence and choice when we get to that stage of life. Unfortunately this is the bit that doesn't get very well covered in media and education. What we tend to read and hear about is 'the pension' or 'the ARF' (the products people are trying to sell us!) - we rarely hear about the finer details, and the details that will be the most significant when we get to that stage. I aim to arm you with the ideas and knowledge now so that you can achieve tangible results when you get there yourself and you are drawing an income from your ARF or other pension funds. We will be looking at two core aspect to Retirement Income Planning; Withdrawal Rates, and Dynamic Spending Strategies. First up are Withdrawal Rates. Paddy Delaney
