THE RETIRE EARLY STUDY ON SAFE WITHDRAWAL RATES Maximum "100% Safe" Inflation Adjusted Withdrawal Rates. The maximum "100% safe" withdrawal rate decreases as the pay out period increases. Using the PPI to index withdrawals, a 20-Year pay out period allows for a 4.78% first year, inflation adjusted withdrawal, while a 60-Year pay out period requires that the first year withdrawal be reduced to 3.24% to remain 100% safe. THE HIGH COST OF A NO-FEE, NO-COMMISSION SINGLE PREMIUM For nominal annuities, the yield on AA-rated commercial bonds is a reasonable discount rate. For inflation-adjusted annuities, the current real yield on the long-term Treasury Inflation-Protected Security (TIPS) is the most appropriate benchmark. RETIRE EARLY: CAN I WITHDRAW MONEY FROM MY IRA BEFORE AGE The life expectancy method is outlined on Page 28 of IRS Publication 590, "Individual Retirement Arrangements."The withdrawal in 2003 would be calculated by dividing the balance of any or all of your IRAs on December 31, 2002, by your life expectancy (or the joint life expectancy of you and the beneficiary of your IRA). CALCULATE YOUR OWN SAFE WITHDRAWAL RATES. For a 40-Year pay out period, many of the worst case months are for a retirement starting in 1964-1966. We won't know the actual 40-Year safe withdrawal rate for these periods until 2006, but even if we assume the S&P500 continues to decline 20% per year through 2006, it still won't breech the 3.52% withdrawal rate for a 40-Year retirement starting in September 1929.
