| Those planning to FIRE within the year, what kind of bond tent are you using? Posted: 01 Aug 2020 07:29 AM PDT It just seems to me like both munis and corporate bonds may have unusual risks with the upheaval in the economy. Currently it is papered over by congress and the Fed, but I don't know how long that can or will continue, especially in the case of the solvency of cities. Just wondering what investment types you are holding for your first few years of FIRE. [link] [comments]  |
| Return-to-work programs for when FIRE doesn't work out? Posted: 31 Jul 2020 06:37 PM PDT Recently I was looking through various companies' career postings and noticed that some of them have postings specifically for people who have been out of the workforce for years but wants to return. They're usually called "return-to-work" or something along that line. While most of these programs target professional women who wants to return after raising kids, some of them are more general. One of the main concerns people have when deciding a FIRE target and withdrawal percentage is the sequence risk that may lead to potentially running out of money while being jobless. If these return-to-work programs become more prevalent in the future, would having a higher withdrawal rate be acceptable? A person will be able to retire earlier and only in a very bad market scenario will have to resort to entering the work force again, but as a professional instead of a low-end job like the stereotypical Walmart greeter.
