This article is very revealing, especially to the retiree. I added this comment:
>The 12/0 strategy generates more total income than the 4/8 strategy until year 29. If you are retired, you are unlikely to live more than 29 additional years.
Comparing the 12/0 strategy to the 8/4 strategy yields a revealing result. The 8/4 strategy does not match total income from the 12/0 strategy until year 23.
These are examples of why high current income is much more valuable to a retiree than high future income.< http://seekingalpha.com/article/2279653-...t-35925663
