from Money Unleashed · host Hoffman Financial Group

It turns out the creator of one of retirement's most popular rules of thumb now believes it actually isn't enough. The four percent rule has been around for three decades, but it may be selling retirees well short of what they can actually withdraw. Chris Hoffman is the founder of Hoffman Financial Group and on this episode of Money Unleashed he discusses the importance of building a financial plan that goes beyond rules and thumb and provides all the income you need to fund a successful and enjoyable retirement.
