Retirement Withdrawals - Monthly or Annually, Which is Better?

[@Fred2-123]

You can have both. Convert your annual amount to a money market fund inside the investment account. Withdraw monthly from that MM account.

[@aragona360]

Do I understand this correctly? FMFXX is the settlement fund/money market already associated with my Vanguard IRA. Transfer the annual amount there and do monthly withdrawals from that, and avoid multiple transaction fees? Do I have it right? That’s clever!

[@rdgale2000]

With an annual withdrawal, you also have to look at the opportunity cost you MAY lose out on with the dividends you could miss out on during the year. Put the money you are not using in a high yield savings account may solve some of that issue.

[@roareward]

Any money you have just sitting around should be in a high yield savings acct, vs some other non money making acct. Although the honest truth about some of these things is if you have to worry about them you probably have not saved enough. Sure its nice to make an extra 1000+ based of this situation or that, but if the extra 1000+ makes that big of a difference to your retirement, you probably are on very shaky ground to begin with.

[@dyates6380]

Yep, that is exactly what I'm doing and also my opinion as well. I'm just a "regular" guy with only about 600k in retirement investments (but I live VERY frugally and only need to draw one thousand a month in addition to my SS benefit, so I'll be fine.

[@genglandoh]

Some good points. In our case we are doing the following 1. We have 3 years of withdrawals in a Money Market Fund (out of the market) This money is to only be used if the market is down 10% or more from its high. 2. If the market is not down 10% from its high we will take monthly withdrawals from our market investments. 3. If the market is down 10% or more we will take our monthly withdrawals from MM fund. I just retired 2 days ago so reviewing my accounts once a month is OK. Over time I may change how often I review my accounts but for now this is my plan.

[@J-2024-v8i]

Sounds like a good plan. What will be your strategy to replenish the MM and how low will you let it go?

[@genglandoh]

@@J-2024-v8i My plan has 3 buckets Bucket1 - 3 Years of withdrawals in MM funds to handle a down market (market down 10% from the last high) Bucket2 - Enough Dividend ETFs so I can live off of SS plus dividends. Bucket3 - The remainder in Growth ETFs If the market is down 10% from its high withdraw from bucket1 So if the market is down for 3 years in a row bucket1 will be empty and I will start taking the dividends from bucket2 Once the market starts to make new highs I will refill bucket1 with money from bucket2 dividends (it will take 3 years for refill from empty)

this information is right on point for me at this time , I'm still working, but fewer hours, haven't take retirement yet, still a few years out from full retirement, , so withdrawals though the year has been a blessing for me, I don't make a withdrawal every month, just as my budget warrants, so thank you so much for this advice,

[@HolySchmidt]

You bet

[@KevinInPhoenix]

In my first year of retirement I took a single withdrawal in January for the entire year. Since then I take withdrawals quarterly. I think it's a good balance between annual and monthly withdrawals. It all boils down to what works best for you.

[@J-2024-v8i]

Since the market may be volatile during the year, up in one quarter and down in another, do you take the withdrawal from stocks when up and from bonds when down, or do you use some other strategy?

[@KevinInPhoenix]

I did not need the first withdrawal opportunity, so began taking my annual RMD in November each year which has worked nicely for me. Transferred my properties to my two children five years ago, and have beneficiaries or P-O-D on all investment and cash accounts.

[@patd2765]

I use my annual withdrawal to run my income up to the next marginal tax rate. Doing this in december makes it easier to calculate.

[@scottschultz7645]

I’m not disciplined enough to take annually. I wish I was so I could time the market with withdrawals. So I use monthly, it’s part of my three legged stool, pension, 401k, part time job, waiting for the forth leg to kick in “social security”. All in all I’m happy I hung it up at 55, gotta go my tee time is coming up 😂

[@dyates6380]

Good for you. I waited until I was sixty five to retire due to the need for medicare, but most people I used to work with want to leave at sixty two and look for alternative medical plans for that bridge period. I'm always so happy to hear about people who retired early and love the fact that they did. Too many people I've known who never had the chance to even retire passed away, and many of them quite suddenly. Best of luck, and with SS coming, you'll be in great shape.

[@scottschultz7645]

I hear you on not getting to retire. My dad worked till 65 then died at 67. Part of the reason I retired early is because of what happened to him. I’ve also worked with way too many people who kept saying I’m working one more year too many times till they died and didn’t get a chance to retire and enjoy the fruits of all their hard work and saving through their lifetime. It’s sad. As far as health insurance, I received an insurance buyout from my employer who pays until I get to Medicare, it’s high deductible but better than nothing.

[@2023Red]

In my view, one takes profits annually. If my SPY account grows from nominally $1m by 10% to $1.1m then the full $100k in January. One could take 7% if inflation was 3%. If SPY dropped 10% to $900k then take nothing. Doing this over a nominal life span of 30 years and projecting from the historical trend then one would deposit 25 times. The point is taking profits when they occur. You will not go hungry that way. The alternative is to flat line withdraw such as staying in cash. 30 annual withdrawals is around $33,000 each year. The point is not to leave inheritance to relatives you never see in decades nor lawyers who make their yacht payments on estate settlement.

[@Duttonmuffins]

Investing in a Roth IRA is a smart move because contributions are made with after-tax dollars, allowing for tax-free growth. When you withdraw in retirement, you get to keep everything. I retired with $2 million.

[@JesseMayhill]

I bet you didn't manage that without a financial advisor. Approaching retirement, I've greatly benefited from their guidance. Starting late, I knew index fund compound interest wouldn't suffice. Surprisingly, I've outperformed peers who've invested for years.

[@scottsotan9951]

Thank you again Jeff. This is one of the things I've been struggling with and this gives me additional information to think about.

[@myvenusheeler]

Very interesting. For the first several years in my retirement I have taken a distribution out in the first week of January. Since my SS is reasonably generous it pays for all my monthly necessary expenses, so the distribution is for planned trips, fun times, and projects I might need to spend a fair amount of money on such as having a large tree cut down or some home upgrade. I will be rolling my 401k over soon (finally) so setting up a monthly allowance from someplace like Fidelity or Vanguard whose money market funds are paying 5% or so without charging $40 for each distribution like my horrible 401k does will be very much worth considering especially since next year is the start of my RMD.

[@steveshea3544]

Have you considered rolling your 401K to an IRA? Only one distribution cost, then take any future distributions from that IRA without costs.

[@myvenusheeler]

@@steveshea3544 I clearly stated I was doing it. The provider of my 401K had many good low-cost index funds and did not charge you at all to pull money out once retired. Better yet, you were also allowed to take the distribution from all the funds or just one of the funds which was great, so you did not have to sell an equity fund when it was down. That changed when a large outfit gobbled up that provider so now it's time to get out but before this it was a great place to keep the money.

[@roareward]

@@steveshea3544 Interesting thought. Would love to hear more about any cons on doing this.

[@kenmcclow8963]

I have been taking quarterly withdrawals. I was putting the money in a regular savings account at 0.6% to dole out to my checking account, but I switched to a couple high yield savings accounts to hold the money at 5% until needed. I also had a wave of concern about the market continuing to rise, so I took my Q3 and Q4 withdrawals and put them into my savings now. So right now I have two months of cash in checking, three months of cash in basic savings, and six months in high yield savings. I feel like that gives me a little more flexibility on when I will have to take withdrawals from the 401k going forward.

[@Troy_Built]

Another thing to consider is that when you don't have a large amount in an accessible account there is a much lower chance of it being misappropriated. There are several ways this can happen but there are a lot more safeties in place when it isn't in a simple savings or checking account. Unfortunately I've been witness to this happening in multiple ways.

[@LTVoyager]

I am fortunate to have a pension and part-time work income. I use those to pay for ongoing expenses and only take a 401k withdrawal for “big ticket” items like building a workshop, buying a car, etc. I have only taken 4 withdrawals in the 9 years since I retired so it is working well for me thus far. And all of my withdrawals were easily planned for a relative high in the market as none were time critical like say a health emergency would be. However, everyone is in a different situation and needs to tailor their withdrawals to their circumstances.

[@RonaldBlacker]

I'm taking monthly. This allows me to let it grow as much as possible.

[@janeenerbaneener]

A simple solution seems to be overlooked. One could take it annually, deposit into a high interest savings account that pays into the checking/bill-paying account monthly, just like during working years. One could even divvy the amount up into as many accounts as necessary for itemizing expenses, like: health insurance and costs associated, utilities, groceries, etc and transfer when applicable or pay from those accounts, if possible.

[@July.4.1776]

How about both? Taking a withdrawl monthly over the course of the year and additional withdrawl annually.

[@tenfodaddy4351]

I do monthly to average out market gains and losses. It also continues and supports our pre-retirement budget and forecast cash flow. It avoids overspending.

[@meibing4912]

Strongly favor yearly withdrawal. If your shares drop/loose rise/win money during the year you can decide whether to withdraw DEC 30 or JAN 2 and capture or defer potential taxes as optimal for your situation (I have an aggressive investment profile). I also use a buffer low-interest bank loan if there's been a bad year (can go up to 3 years with loans only). No problem with money management or discipline. Probably not for everyone.

[@mikespangler98]

Taking a lump sum in the first quarter means it gets multiplied by four for estimated tax purposes and you will be sending a big check to the government. It sorts out later of course, but cash flow will take a hit.

This sort of discussion makes me glad that the only pretax account I have is a small, relative to my total portfolio, 403b. I just let that account pay my RMDs monthly and there are no transaction fees. That money is going directly into treasuries at present, but that will change if rates drop. Other than that I just spend what I feel like and don't worry about withdrawal frequency. It helps that I am frugal and spend less than my fixed income (pensions and social security).

[@zoomzoom3950]

I'm slowly transitioning a small part of my tax deferred investments to investments that pay monthly dividends; I also have high yield savings, and taxable accounts that I'm also transitioning a portion to investments that pay monthly dividends. My plan is to take money from monthly dividends out of my tax deferred accounts monthly or quarterly; if the market is down, I have savings as a cushion, if the market is up I'll increase my savings or my taxable investments which I can also use to provide additional dividend income. Balancing the transaction fees with spreading my withdrawals over more frequent smaller withdrawals. I'll be in an interesting position when I retire; if I only take amounts that keep me in the 24% Federal tax bracket until age 72, when RMDs hit, I will be forced to take withdrawals that put me in the 37% tax bracket for a few years. On average, my change in asset value increases annually more than I'll be withdrawing to stay at or below the 24% tax bracket before RMDs. I'm trying to avoid being in a higher tax bracket than 24% when I'm retired, but it doesn't look possible.

[@user-fr3hy9uh6y]

I tend to make my withdrawal at the end of the year. I need to transfer money from my traditional to my Roth without being pushed into the next Medicare bracket. In December, I can predict my income quite well and have little chance of making a bad mistake and transferring too much.

[@J-2024-v8i]

I was planning to do the same, but my only concern is what if the market goes down at the end of the year, while the highest for the year is right now? Would it make sense to take some of the withdrawal now still safely in the current tax bracket and then the rest at the end of the year at the time of the Roth conversion? We can’t really time the market so there is risk either way by either missing out on the market continuing up or at least taking some off the table before it goes down, if it does.

@@annewax9091 Thanks. I do the same, but I also want to realize some long term gains each year at 0% and, you waste the 0% space each year if you don’t it. Therefore, by waiting to the end of the year, if the market is down, you will take the funds from the MM/CD instead of realizing any gains that you could have harvested earlier in the year when the market was up, essentially wasting space in the 0% tax bracket for that year. It is a good idea to harvest gains each year, especially for securities that have already grown significantly over many years since you first bought them.

confusing! But I take monthly and whatever I don't spend goes into my high rate savings account. That said, I don't get a lot per month. Just what I think my expenses will be. I totally own my house, but the taxes are high as is the insurance. I save that in savings monthly so I can make those payments. I buy groceries only once every 6 weeks, not to exceed $100. I'm not that interested in food these days. But it's healthcare. That is a pretty penny, and takes about 1/3 of what I get monthly. I didn't plan on retiring this early, but here we are.

[@scottb6269]

It depends where you have your money. For example, if it's still in a 401K, does your plan charge $40 (or some amount) for each transaction? So if you withdraw once a year it would be $40, If you withdraw once a month it would cost $40 x 12 or $480. Some people have individual stocks and you would most likely pay a fee for each transaction. If you have mutual funds or ETF's somewhere like Vanguard, there would not be a transaction fee at all. Hope that answers your question.

I guess I'm disappointed with this one. While I understand that folks might need guidance on what to watch out for when taking 1 or 12 withdrawals from a retirement account. The seriousness and urgency in making the decision seem overblown. You can change your mind. You can try it one way and see how it works for you. You can probably switch institutions if yours doesn't have favorable withdrawal terms. You can use your once a year withdrawals to coincide with your annual rebalancing minimizing the risk of selling any particular asset class low. You can still have an emergency fund so that the timing of your withdrawal isn't critical. Your audience probably slants hard toward those who have some financial discipline... otherwise they wouldn't be watching retirement account optimization videos....

45% of Americans do not invest in the stock market because of lack of guidance. Every year you don't invest, you are falling behind. I’m hitting numbers in the stock market I used to dream of… Going from $50k to $600k in my portfolio is surreal all thanks to insights from my financial advisor.

I found her page by searching for her entire name online. After that, I emailed her and we set up a meeting so we could talk; I'm currently waiting on her response.

Count me with Joe! My stock fund has exploded under the Biden Administration! Retirement is on my horizon, baby! Also, my health insurance is covered by my husband's union for the rest of my life. Take that!

If you have fees to withdraw money from your retirement account you need to roll it over into an IRA that has no fees. Ridiculous.

Annually is best,by far,especially if u keep 3 or 4 years of living costs as your sequence of return risk safety net.This is not hard.

Annual withdraws for me...Taxes

[@johnjaco5544]

I'll just donate it to charities that way I won't have to pay tax on it.I don't need it.

[@jsgozzo9236]

Sounds like you’re advocating for market timing. Really?

[@randolphh8005]

Not necessarily. Drawing from a significantly down portfolio has consequences. So any alternative to that can be helpful
