I'm never stopping investing even at 66. With the horrible US inflation problem you can't afford not to.

I've worked hard enough, retired early so I just invest for fun now, two cups of coffee at the local cafe and buy small and often, not the right way but still ahead and start my day happy, will take it.

People should not retire right at the crossover, you'll need a buffer for risk and inflation.<br><br>If you don't, you'll lose purchasing power due to inflation.

You’ve provided me my foundation for investing and encouraged me to get started. I’ve invested more this year than ever before and definitely keep it simple (boring)!

My investments are now creating more than my effort and I continue to invest from my personal earnings and the investment income as well

Another good option would be to add investment-grade corporate bond ETFs during retirement. LQD from iShares has been around since summer 2002, so it existed during a portion of the Lost Decade. The lowest annual dividend yield it had from 2003 - 2009 was 4.7%, and the highest it had was over 8%. The lowest annual yield it's ever had in its 24-year history was just over 2% in 2021 when bond yields were the lowest ever recorded. IGIB has slightly lower duration and yield. Or there's also BND or AGG that encompass treasuries, corporate bonds, and securitized bonds.
