I have considered another option. Divide my portfolio into two parts. 70/30 division. Spend down the 70 percent part over seventeen years starting at one seventeenth of the total, next year one sixteenth, etc. After seventeen years the second part should grow into enough to repeat. Allows more spending earlier and time to adjust if things aren’t going well.
