...long-term growth that produces inflation of 4% a year as you age from 65 to 95. In the second scenario, a severe recession knocks your portfolio down to $2 million. But because of the crisis, over the next 30 years inflation averages just 2%. In both cases, you withdraw $100,000 a year to live on, and you adjust that number for inflation every year. By the time you're 95, the smaller nest egg has become the larger one - $567,000 vs. $335,000. Maybe that will help talk you in off the ledge...
...strange thing to say about anything that leads to brawls in parliament, angry demonstrations and fiery rhetoric from the Prime Minister.

Politicians agree that the U.S. military must withdraw, and soon--and while they disagree fiercely about whether the end of 2011 is soon enough, the debate has brought together some unlikely bedfellows.

Across the country, schools are shuttered for lack of teachers and students able to pay, and in hospitals patients are dying because they can't withdraw money from banks fast enough to pay for simple procedures, according to news reports...
...riveting stuff. For the second straight day, the SOFA discussion in parliament turned into a shouting match as MPs on both sides of the debate hurled insults and accusations of treachery at one another. The deal currently on the table calls for the U.S. to withdraw its troops by the end of 2011 and gives the Iraqi government a much greater say in what U.S. troops do until then. Opponents of the deal warn that the government has signed secret codicils that give the U.S. far greater leeway than advertised and may keep American troops in Iraq indefinitely. Ajil Abdel...
