## Resource

Retirement’s four percent rule? It might be outdated. The original creator now recommends a 5.5% withdrawal rate, letting you retire sooner and save less. Why? Spending often drops in later years—especially with health issues—and managing money well may even signal cognitive health. The FIRE movement teaches you to live on less, slashing the nest egg you need. Flexibility with “adventure” spending and a safety net for emergencies can boost your withdrawal rate. Your ideal retirement plan hinges on your risk tolerance—use tools to model scenarios and retire confidently on your own terms.
