21. Impact of Average -Vs- Variable Returns Retirement Income Phase – 2nd 10 Years Now the bear market hits and while you are down from the $1,276,994 you had at the end of year 10, you still have more than the $789,192 you started with 20 years earlier. Foundational Asset Management™
22. Impact of Average -Vs- Variable Returns What if you are unlucky enough to retire into a disastrous down market first, like millions of Americans did back in 1999.
