Not sure they're so "new" rules, but this is actually a reasonable article on early retirement, which is something you don't typically see from the mainstream financial press:

Not too bad an article from the mainstream media. Personally I think Wade Pfau's advice of using 2.6% WR is incredibly extreme for an early retiree, but that's my personal opinion.
