I'm 63 With $1.5M. Can I Spend $10K a Month?
You’ve saved $1.5 million. Now comes the real test.
Can it produce $10,000 a month, or will that pace drain your portfolio?
Most retirees do not get a clear answer until it is too late.
The issue is not just how much you have. It is whether your portfolio was built to pay you, not just grow.
That difference can determine whether your money lasts decades or starts breaking down early.
Sequence of returns, taxes on withdrawals, healthcare costs, and whether the 4% rule still applies all play a role.
Fiduciary advisors created a breakdown showing what drives sustainable income and why the same $1.5M can produce very different outcomes.
If you have $1M or more invested, do not guess.

Meme of the Day
After a rainy stretch, the sun is finally taking over. Today clears up nicely with a high of 88, and the weekend looks great from there. Expect 90 and sunny Saturday, 92 and sunny Sunday, and 94 and mostly sunny Monday. A perfect run for anything outdoors.
☀️ Finally: A Full Sunny Weekend Ahead
After a soggy stretch through the middle of the week, the forecast finally clears up for good news. This weekend looks about as good as August gets around here. Highs in the low 90s, sunshine every day, and no rain in sight through Monday.
Whatever you have planned, whether it is finishing up back to school shopping, a trip to the pool, or just sitting on the porch in the evening, this is the stretch to enjoy it in.
Quick Details
☀️ Saturday: 90 and sunny
☀️ Sunday: 92 and sunny
☀️ Monday: 94 and mostly sunny
🍦 Where to Find a Cold Treat This Weekend
With three sunny, warm days ahead, a cold treat is basically a public service at this point. Two Basehor spots worth a stop:
Sylas and Maddy's, 15518 Pinehurst Dr, is a local favorite for scoops, and it is close enough for a quick after dinner run all summer long.
Daylight Coffee and Donuts, right here in town, pairs a solid ice cream selection with coffee and donuts, so it works for a morning stop or an evening one just the same.
Got a favorite we missed? Hit reply and let us know. We will build out a longer list as more of you weigh in.

🗳️ This or That: Settle a Local Debate
The city's summer lawn series has given us two great traditions this year, Third Thursdays concerts and Cinema Sundays movies. Both happen right on the City Hall lawn, both are free, and both are genuinely fun. But if you had to pick just one to keep going year round, which would it be?
Third Thursdays or Cinema Sundays, which lawn event do you look forward to more?
Vote above, and we will share the results in a future issue.
