<<Sure, for the 60/40 investor.
Aren’t you more of a 90%+ stocks kinda guy? The 2000 retiree sticking to that portfolio isn’t doing well, as your graph shows.
Sure after my portfolio increased by a factor of 4 and my withdrawal rate dropped to 1%. If the portfolio hadn't increased in value and my withdrawal rate was still something like 4%, I'd still be somewhere around 60/40.
Think of it this way. I can comfortably live off a 4% withdrawal from a 60/40 portfolio that represents 10% of my net worth. The other 90% is invested 100% in stocks.
