The 4% rule gets talked about like gospel in retirement planning. But let’s be honest, it’s always been more of a rough guess than a golden rule. Now, its original creator is revising it to 4.7%.

🔍 What the 4.7% update really means (and doesn’t mean)

🖩 Why drag-and-drop spreadsheets can create false confidence
