re: Retirement - 1M lump sum or 5k per month until death.

Posted by VanJoe on 8/22/21 at 3:05 pm to slackster

Below are my options.
- Lump sum 1 mil (Roll over to an IRA. Pay tax on amount withdraw only)
- 5k a month until I die. My wife receive nothing if I die .
- Joint and survival annuity. Payment reduced from 5k to 4k a month (20%). My wife continues to receive 4k a month if I die.

Should I hire financial advisor to manage the 1 mil or invest it myself?
Where should I invest 1 mil to generate around 4 to 5k a month on dividend that lasted for 35 years?

I can roll the 1 mil to an IRA account, and pay tax on the amount withdraw.

I’m a heathy 58-year-old with no debt. My company pension plan gives me choice to take one-time lump sum of 1M or receive 5k per month until I die. What should I take?

If you are sitting on any losing positions, dump them (and don’t buy them again for 30 days or you’ll be in for even bigger surprises).

If I use 80% of the PPP loan to pay all the laid off employees, and 20% to pay rent while the business is still closed during the 8 weeks period. Is my loan qualify for 100% forgiveness?
