The Sequence of Returns Risk That Breaks Early Retirement
In this episode, Lucas and Luna unpack the concept of sequence of returns risk—the danger that a market downturn early in retirement can permanently damage a portfolio even if average returns are good. They explore why this risk is especially acute for early retirees, and offer practical strategies like building a cash buffer and adjusting withdrawal rates to mitigate it. Specific numbers and scenarios make the concept concrete for listeners.
