Investing - Theory, News & General • Re: Comments on paper "The Death of the 4% Rule ..." ?

Skimming the introduction...from the paper: "The 4% rule has shown diminished effectiveness in recent years"

The question itself is...(words I care not to write or say in public).

Also: "The 4% rule was created in a different era: one of high growth in the market and lower volatility" What? Image may be NSFW.

The entire framing of the premise is flawed which makes me less inclined to read on. But, the general topic of variable vs fixed withdrawal strategies is of course a valid one. The 4% rule is not a withdrawal strategy and the authors should know that.

I think I'll go back to reading the news. Image may be NSFW.

[Note this is not a criticism of the OPs post and questions...and there is much education to be had by a subsequent genuine discussion.]
