Personal Finance (Not Investing) • RMDs: Are they overblown?

RMDs = math, you can't overblow math. RMDs are what they are.

Yes it is indeed pretty much just a math problem.

But with all the tangential interrelationships between thresholds, cliffs, brackets, timing, and many best guesstimates about the future, it's an extremely complicated word problem.

I admit that I have actually enjoyed modeling ALL of our investment strategies and retirement plans, of which RMD's are an integral part (one of the largest Excel programs I've ever created).
