I'm playing around with my numbers and figure in 3 years i'll be fire because my pile of cash will exceed my current salary for my estimated lieftime plus 5 years just in case.
and i figured that i may not be considering that i'm in a even better position because i'm used to a chunk of my money being taken for taxes every month before i even see it.
now, i know if you have investments, they have taxes; but are generally lower than income tax, so does anyone factor that in or do you just figure you need for instance 5,000 per month in retirement and as long as your stash supplies that; your just need to include taxes in retirement the same as other expenses ?
