This video walks through the exact calculation for determining how much SCHD you need at three different spending levels, why planning at current yield is dangerously optimistic, and how the dividend growth rate changes the income picture dramatically over a 10 to 20 year retirement horizon. The math is simple — the honesty required to fill in the variables correctly is the harder part, and this video shows you exactly what assumptions to stress test before you commit to a number.
