Scenario:
Retiring this year at age 55 Pension of about 49K No mortgage payment About 500K in 403B Wife's pension to be about 14K (in 2 years) Retirement expenses will consist mainly of condo upkeep, 2 cars, light travel, health insurance.
403B monies at present: 24% bond fund, 16% short term equities money fund, 60% conservative equities (34% world, 66% domestic). Equity funds have yielded about 10-15% in 2006.What to do w/ 403B monies? Will likely keep it in 403B until age 59, then move to IRA. Thinking of moving all to index funds, staying put in present funds, or going real conservative and moving all to guaranteed, insured money funds and never having to worry about principal depleting significantly, though giving up better chance of significant growth.
Thoughts appreciated...
