Two Sides of Fi is a podcast that follows two lifelong friends as they seek financial independence and to retire early. Two weeks ago, Fritz Gilbert from Retirement Manifesto posted a new article with Karsten Yesca called Is the Bucket Strategy a Cheap gimmick? And then just about a week later, the two of them posted again, this time on Karsten's blog, Early Retirement Now. They're both friends of the show. We've had them on the show separately, but never together in the same room. So I want to get right in the middle of that, right? Yes. No, it's a perfect topic for both you and I. Moving from accumulation phase to drawdown
Do you worry about running out of money in retirement? How do you draw down your assets without tanking your portfolio? Eric + Jason talk with FIRE bloggers Karsten Jeske and Fritz Gilbert about the bucket strategy. Is it a reasonable withdrawal plan or nothing more than a gimmick? They discuss alternative approaches, how to generate a retirement paycheck, and the role of cash. Whether you're interested in FIRE or on a traditional retirement path, you can't afford to miss this episode!
