wha?
who said anything about eating the burger cold/dry?
or even reheating them?
I'm eating it when i get home, which is like a 5min drive from McD.
still warm
1 ounce of pure protein — coming from a piece of meat, chicken or fish — weighs in at about 7 grams of protein per ounce.
frozen quarter pounder burger patty is 4 oz but that's precook/ice weight.
after cooking off the water, it's 3oz so the packaging should say for each patty protein =...
I'm paying the premium for not feeling like cooking and cleaning of the burgers.
At 2 double cheeseburgers (4 patties) for $3, That's 4 x 1.6oz = 6.4 oz or .4 lbs of beef.
I feel 1/4lb of beef plus 4 slices of cheese for $3 is only a small premium for not cooking/cleaning.
edit:
That's...
hm.. never thought of paying for an extra patty.
in my example, 2 double cheeseburgers for $3 comes out to .75 each patty.
Have to check next time how much each additional patty is
Who said anything that 4% swr scares me?
it's the opposite in that i think dying with the same amount you start retirement with is too much.
but yeah 10% chance of going to $0 in 30yrs with 5% swr scares me.
So i think something slightly above 4% like 4.3% is good balance for me.
(still 0%...
but your going to die with ALOT more $ than you retired with at 2.7% rate.
(not watching youtube link)
You could have retired years earlier if you did 4% and over a decade earlier if Dullard's 5%
Because of this thread, i looked At mcD attached to my local walmart.
mcDouble is 2 for $4 but just noticed on mcD app that double cheeseburgers are b1g1 so $3.20 for 2.
yeah, i bought at $1.60 cheeseburgers.
still higher than 1.25 McDoubles from years ago but i get an extra slice of cheese so...
Ahh.. sorry.. 6% for SS instead of 9%.
but it's only ~1.5% Medicare. And employer also contributes 6% ss and 1.5% medicare So 12% SS.
From your 15% savings formula, you already have 12% from SS.
hm.. but that's assuming you take SS at full retirement age of 67.
it'll be 30% lower at age 62 so...
die with lots of $ left over @ swr = 4%?
hm.. lets say your expenses are $30k/yr.
4% swr = $750k. :eek:
so yeah if 4% swr, then you will die with your starting balance of at least mid 6 figures after 30yrs.
Depends on your risk tolerance.
I'd rather die with $750k than running out of $ after...
So 5% safe withdraw rate, with a slight chance you might run out of $ before you die if you live 30yrs past retirement.
with a 4% safe withdraw rate, you should die with about the same amount of $ you entered retirement with, minus the buying power from inflation.
ie: You will never run out of...
