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
The sunny run keeps going. Today is 90 and sunny, and it holds steady from there, 93 Sunday, 93 Monday, and 94 Tuesday, all mostly sunny with no rain in sight. A great stretch for the market, the car show, or anything else outdoors.
🚗 Lowrider Car Show Rolls Into Bonner Springs Today
Something a little different this weekend. Old School Souls, a lowrider edition car show featuring Kansas City area car clubs, rolls into the George Meyn Center in Bonner Springs today from 10am to 3pm. The show is presented by the Wyandotte County Historical Society and is on the hunt for classics from the late 1970s and 1980s in particular.
It is free to attend as a spectator, and it is the kind of show you do not see around here every day. Worth the short drive if you appreciate a good paint job and a lot of chrome.

☀️ The Sunny Stretch Continues All Week
After a rainy patch earlier this week, the forecast has settled into a genuinely great run. Sunny or mostly sunny every day through at least Tuesday, with highs holding in the low to mid 90s.
It is warm, so the usual reminders apply, water bottles, shade breaks, and a little extra care for pets and anyone working outside. But otherwise, this is about as reliable a summer stretch as it gets.
