IRAs: The RMD rules require individuals to take withdrawals from their IRAs (including SIMPLE IRAs and SEP IRAs) every year once they reach age 72 (73 if the account owner reaches age 72 in 2023 or later), even if they're still employed. Owners of Roth IRAs are not required to take withdrawals during their lifetime
读书过来的,一般到59.5岁,需要工作30年。我们很多同学朋友,现在退休账户都接近1M,到时候会接近2M或者1.5M。因为税高,我们大多放满401K,加上公司match。
401K有规定的每年最低取出额度,59.5岁开始拿,2M按照40年算,每年min5万。2M不仅不缩水,还会增加。要是到65岁才开始拿,基数更大,双职工的话,加起来可不少。还有SS的收入。
我朋友第一次算给我看的时候,我都不相信自己的眼睛,后来领导又算了一下,还是真的。Full retirement退休的话,双职工加起来,收入会超过 0.2M/yr。直到那时,我才明白老美为什么很重视退休账户,而平时不怎么在意存钱。
提早退休,medical 才是主要需要解决的问题。年龄大的那个,59.5岁可以先退,年轻的cover medical。年纪大的到65岁时,年轻的也可以退。再买一些附加保险,done。
最重要的一条,你不理财,财不理你。作为财迷,我那些朋友和我很类似。但是我又听说有相似年纪的,退休账号只有三四十万的,那就是another story了。
历史的数据告诉我们, 这是不可能的
