Add a Spending Plan option for RMD - enhancement request #60

Closed mouchma closed 9 years ago

mouchma commented 9 years ago

It would be great if there was a spending plan based solely on RMD. This is one of the drawdown options I am considering and would love to be able to model it and compare the output to other drawdown methods. Thank you.

Marilyn,

Technically this already exists. If you choose the "Hebeler Autopilot" method, it is comprised of a blend between the 4% rule (labeled CPI) and the RMD method. To make this purely a RMD method, you'd simply change the "Weighted RMD" field to 100, and the "Weighted CPI" field to 0.

I'm going to close this issue, as it is somewhat redundant.
