I believe that tax law says we have to take mandatory withdrawals from our tax-deferred retirement accounts the year after we turn 70½.

Good grief, who -- aside from The Swamp Creatures -- could come up with something so convoluted?

I have to admit, your post made me think. I'm not sure why but it seems normal to me, although it is quite redundant now looking at it. I'll leave the post unedited for all to see my lack of foresight!

I think that if you don't like the subject, are bored by it or whatever; just don't answer and don't click on the subsequent posts.

Seems simple to me.

Invoking that particular graphic implies that one has so much better discernment than the rest of us folks.

It's fine, I'm just happy to see so many people have participated so far! Don't let one rotten apple distract you from the fact that the majority belongs to the 66-70 bracket!

There was a guy in C2 few years back said he was 92 & looking for information about how to do valve lash on his solid lifter BB
