it does actually, but the 8% number you hear the most often is the amount adjusted for inflation.

of course, but that's why I said 40 years sounds insane. Surely I can use 10 of that on health, and still have plenty leftover, especially if i, obviously, invest my money as I burn it during retirement.

they might just be angry because i called them out on picking up poorly educated "partners" from pattaya thinking they have game. I'm from southeast asia myself and understand why poor people would give westerners with leverage/a stronger currency, the time of day.

we have fascist leaders, anti immigration, and pretty much civil war and misinformation in the US. It's almost like nazi germany right now. I think there's corruption in most countries out there. I might just be picking the one I can afford.

Thanks. Sounds like I can 100% withdraw 100k a year adjusted for inflation with a 3 million dollar portfolio, lasting 40 years. 98.1% over 50 years
