    Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determines a lot of things, my parents both spent same number of years in the medical profession, my mom was investing through a financial advisor while my dad through the 401k. On retirement, my mom retired with about $5million, while my dad retired with roughly $3.8million.

      Tor Eckman. Nice to meet you. Devin is spot on but this couple will still pay substantial taxes.
      I have similar situation but retired at 55 and drained my brokerage account and paid zero capital gains tax. The only possible regret there is i has to keep my income below 75k ti get zero tax. I could have started Roth transfer then but opted to wait.
      Regardless, I’m waiting until 68 to take SS and wife’s SB when she’s FRA.
      End result based on 6% growth and 3% inflation, taxes between 68 and the great gig in the sky should be less than 2k per year. The key is keeping provisional income low enough to avoid tax on SS. That’s the killer.

    Since interest and non qualified dividends are taxed as ordinary income, Investments that produce these incomes are best in IRAs especially Roth IRAs. Tax Free accounts like Roth IRAs are great for holding high growth stocks and interest bearing investments since there withdrawals are always tax free. Taxable accounts are great for holding investments that produce long term cap gains since this is tax favored income and taxed a lower rate than regular income or withdraws from regular IRAs. IRA to Roth conversions are great when opportunities occur that allow you to make the conversions at a lower than normal tax rates. The analysis to do all this the best way is somewhat complicated. But every path has a potential gotcha. Like if you convert IRA to Roth and pay taxes then later have an event that allows a very large tax deduction (I'm thinking nursing home expenses would fall into this category). Captured correctly, you could of made the conversion tax free. The analysis done right also accounts for the LTCap Gains, Social Security, and IRA RMD issues and tax effects (or affects).

    I think some folks are getting hung up on the values used in this example. I dont think it matters if your portfolio is 50% or 25% of this example. This strategy could net you more money by paying less taxes and could be set up now before taxes skyrocket again in 2025. Even $100 more in your pocket each month is worth it.

    Anyone who is already in retirement should at NO TIME place most of their regular savings (assets outside of retirement accounts) into equities if those savings are needed for normal living expenses. With the exception of high dividend paying stocks (dividends being taxed as ordinary income BTW) you do not realize a taxable gain until you SELL the stock investment all the while with the real risk of a market downturn reducing your savings cushion. In fact I would argue that a retirees asset allocation overall be in investments that maximize capital preservation. Will there be a significant tax hit once you have to start taking RMDs at age 73? Yes, but that's better than a market crash severely impacting the balance in those accounts.

After taxes, medical insurance, well.....$5063 is what we will have to live on.With inflation.....well its plain to see.

      Precious metals capital gains are taxed at your ordinary income rate (but no higher than 28%, in case you are in one of the highest marginal rate brackets). The best place for precious metals investments is in a Roth IRA because there is no tax on capital gains in a Roth. However, be sure to do your due diligence with respect to an IRA custodian for precious metals, as most are firms you've never heard of before. Make a list of all the big name firms in IRAs and investments. Then search for precious metals at that name. I found only one household name investment firm that allowed physical precious metals in an IRA. Also, the metals MUST be held by the custodian, you can't keep them at home. Easier all around to invest in GLD or SLV just as you would a regular stock, held in a Roth IRA. If you are a stacker who believes "if you can't hold it you don't own it" then you won't want to leave your metal with a custodian and you will be subject to ordinary income tax rates on your gains (which very probably will be an issue if you hold them long enough - unless inflation and geopolitical risks magically disappear).
