Arguably the best early retirement video EVER and I’ve been watching many!!! Great work Ari touching on so many aspects and variables. That software is next level stuff. I love how you can even add something like “a big purchase” into the equation. I love what you and ROOT provide. My only reservation is being someone with considerable assets I’m hesitant to what I assume is AUM costs. It’s a difficult pill to swallow when you’re paying a firm 1-2%.
They have a significant brokerage, they retire early and go on an exchange to get Healthcare so that brokerage income isn't really affecting pre medicare Healthcare costs. They get significant premium credits.. Probably just some reportable dividend income and interest income showing. Their Healthcare cost will actually increase at 65. You can literally be paying 500 bucks for two people in early retirement living off a non qualified account and when you hit 65 that probably doubles as you both begin Medicare premiums.
@@chrisniner8772 a month. Remember, its about income. We show 57k a year in income. That gets us a gold plan for both myself and my wife for $511 a month. If you do a Roth conversion up to 100k then you lose $1300 in credits per month.
Going out in our late 50s on a lot less than that. But our spending is a fraction of this example. Glad you went into the various or dynamic withdrawals and that you can take a higher % off every now and then. We came to this conclusion a while ago when planning early retirement as we looked at what our estimated SS will be even if claiming a bit early. My SS alone more than covers all our household expenses and leaves some left over for entertainment. So the need to pull off investments becomes much, much smaller after that point. Like your example here, somewhere around 2 to 3 % And that is sustainable in almost any market. Projections show we will also have a larger portfolio in our 70s and 80s then when we retire. Gonna have fun trying to spend some of it. :)
I'd tell them to retire ASAP and go enjoy whatever their goals are. If they truly want to keep working b/c it brings someone joy and purpose then keep working. As a physician the # of people over 80 living it up and traveling extensively is very few that I come across.
It would be great to know what we want to 'do' in retirement but sometimes it takes step back and relax time for purpose and hobbies to evolve. Got the nest egg? Do it and figure 'it' out as you go👍
I just got sick of my industry at 48 and retired. Did some casual on call that maxed my ss out. Then real estate hack that brought all my bill even food to zero. Dummy down approach with a million in the bank. Travel as far as my MC will take me. Avoid complex big pain in the ass toys except a couple awesome bikes😎. Basic psychology and finances. Lost my crappy insurance so went on my wife’s crappy plan. Stay healthy and getting the best gap plan in a few years. I see people retire with millions that are miserable. Less is more
Our situation is very, very similar to this except we're a little bit older. I've spent hours playing with our numbers with a retirement software. I've also inserted all of the one time expenses I can think of for the next 15 years. I'm trying to figure out how to spend more $$ so we don't leave a lot at the end. Don't worry, I'm coming up with great ideas.
Thanks for the videos. 55 and thinking about retirement. Is it possible to discuss getting one of your ‘rough drafts’ to see what our realistic monthly ‘income’ could comfortably be?
@@ttangent69 I have a new video coming out that should help show you a sample.

Hmm, will be interesting as I can retire at 57 in 2 years, start with decent pension at 60, and then start SS at ? 65-70, plus I want to maximize income for my wife who, likely and hopefully, will outlive me by a fairly long time, maybe. A lot of variables already built in plus the variable of market returns and inflation. Anyway, thanks for the video.
So in short -- if you have $2M you are OK. I had several advisors tell me I had to work until I was 67. Then one told me he thought we could put together plan to retire at 63. Guess who I hired?
Seems like they have major sequence of returns risk taking so much out in the first 10 years and hoping there is much less when they get to 70 years old. There could easily be 3 double digit negatives years in the next 10 like 01-08.
Great videos. Question, did you adjust the 10-12k a mo for inflation in your calculations? The other thing is the 2 ish mil left at end isn’t going to be a true (today’s value) amount. 2mil 20+ years from now in purch power will be way less. Can you address these in a future video? How does someone factor these items into the plan? Great job!
Love a good case study but did I miss it? Did you disclose what the proposed average rate of return your plan is based on relative to their investments? Without that, the case study you present is somewhat meaningless on how realistically it is achievable or not.
Thanks, Ari! I really appreciate you showing the variety of market return options without including her pension and their social security funds during your scenario.
I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my portfolio for retirement. I'm seeking to invest $200K across markets but don't know where to start.
Keeping some gold is usually a wise decision. You would be better off keeping away from equities for a bit or, even better, seeking advice from an expert given the current market conditions and everything that is at risk with the current economy.
Is the example of spending $12k a month before or after taxes. I am assuming given their total savings that they will need to take taxes out of the 12k. So what is the actual number they actually need to hit their goals?
Nice video Ari. Sure wish I had my portfolio with such a diversified location. With a portfolio made up of mostly pretax, I was expecting to see a big spike at RMD age, like I"m going to experience. That brokerage account sure has super powers.
Wearing a bathrobe and appearing unshaved and unbathed reduces credibility. Are you serious? You seem to know what you are talking about but not sure I can take you seriously.
Lol, its not a robe its a sweater with a belt. I was too busy listening to the content and determining its value rather than his appearance playing any role in that determination
