@bee ; "Do you find you spend your entire RMD or does some end up puddling in a taxable account?
At this time all of the RMD goes into taxable.
When I retired I left enough in cash to carry RMDs for a number of years. Thus no need to sell any equit…
I would like to know how many active MFO's use a set withdrawal rate plus inflation adder or just take their required RMD's. I'd be of the later group. A simple life style compared to an active , keep up to the Jones . My auto will be do for collec…

When the retail goes to institutional will a taxable event take p…
Thanks for your reply @MikeM . I also own the other two that you mentioned. TMSRX is in the hot seat & I'll be keeping a close eye on. I'm wondering if incoming cash caused them some problems ? I will be looking to add to JHQAX & possibly ad…
