The 4% Rule and Saving for an Early Retirement - WCI Podcast #441

We are answering a variety of your questions today. We start out talking about methods to save up for an early retirement. We answer a question from a listener who received an inheritance from a Canadian relative and they want to know if they should leave the money in Canada or bring it to the US. This question dives into political considerations. We then talk about the 4% rule and answer a questions about capital preservation.
