## Transcript

So we have a variety of different assets. First of all, we're going to keep our current home and use it as a rental. When we bought it three years ago, we bought it specifically with an eye towards making it a rental someday. We also have significant amounts of investments, both pre and post tax. Between the Cambridge rental house and one of the things we would love to do on our eventual homestead is have And AirBnB property. And so we plan on having a bunch of different income streams and we're very conservative financially so. We're gonna have enough in assets to live off of in perpetuity using the 4 percent rule where you can drawn down 4 % of your investments.

Adjust for inflation and it lasts. But we're not actually planning on doing that drop down, that's sort of our safety blanket. But between the rental and the Airbnb and some other stuff we have going on, we plan on not actually needing to touch the nest egg. [ MUSIC ]
