Retirement Income Bucket Strategy
Bucket 1: The Grill
We call this bucket the grill because it refers to money that is going to be spent within the first 5 years of retirement. You need a monthly check regardless of what the market does, so these monies will be invested in low risk investments to help ensure your check comes every month.
Bucket 2: The Fridge
This bucket is for years 6-10 of retirement and used to replenish bucket one upon depletion. Investments in this bucket are going to be low-medium risk to help fight inflation, but not suffer dramatically from large market swings.
Bucket 3: The Freezer
This is where the long-term money goes into a deep freeze to really offset inflation and grow for generations. These monies are usually concentrated in equities to help grow while maintaining an adequate risk-return allocation.
