What’s a safe withdrawal rate for Wine Guy and Wine Gal in Sonoma California to have 35 years of “guaranteed” retirement spending? How aggressively should they convert their retirement savings to Roth IRA? Should the Bond family move from Silicon Valley to a no-income-tax state in retirement? Can Doc in San Francisco quit work in 8 years when his daughter starts college? Rob in Kansas City and his wife are in their late 30s and have 2 million saved. Can they retire early? Plus, Elisa in Fremont has more than the capital gains exclusion for a married couple of $500,000 worth of home equity. How much will this cost her, and will it kill her IRMAA for Medicare premiums? Should Happy Camper and Jolly Pumpkin take their pension’s monthly annuity or the lump sum payout? And finally, Lloyd in South Dakota isn’t a fan of retirement accounts and wants Joe and Big Al to talk some sense into him.
