There is a "rule" that suggests withdrawing 4% of one's savings the first year of retirement, and then "adjusting for inflation" in subsequent years. This is supposed to ensure you will never spend all your money before you die.

I do not understand what the inflation adjustment means. If inflation the second year of retirement is 3%, how does one adjust the amount taken out of savings to maintain the 4% rule?

Is it true that now a days people with almost any type of credit score can qualify for a home loan if they are able to afford it have little to no debt? I mean... very little debt!

Also, can you get a loan for 100% of the home price with no down?

I am currently working through a placement firm and they placed me in this "so called" job. I have basically told them I would like to be moved and so they have devised an exit plan for me to leave in three weeks. But I can tell the boss wants me gone.

Should I sit and wait and pussyfoot for the placement company to find me another job, or should I just leave this place and go find something on my own?

The company paid a fee for me to come here, but I did not sign anything that says I have to stay here for a period of time. They simply offer a 90 day guarantee to replace me if in fact I do leave.

I feel as though if I work out the three weeks, I am going to go into such a case of the "black ***" that I will take this to my next job. What do you think?

Thanks

Do they really get so many calls on customer service?
Or is that the workers just make you wait while they fool around?
