Where Will Your Retirement Income Come From?

Last week, I posted an article about funding retirement on Seeking Alpha. I made the point that conventional retirement strategies based on slowly depleting your nest egg in retirement (via withdrawals, the 4% rule, and the like) may be more risky than building a retirement portfolio that itself throws off some or all of the income you need. The article has generated over 300 comments, many of which are quite educational. You can read the full article and the comment stream by clicking here. Its title is "You're Retiring: Where Will Your Retirement Income Come From?"
