The problem I see is that if you're 30 and use that rule, you are basically forced to drain your 401k over the next 29.5 years.

- nybble41 6y agoYes, but you don't have to spend it all. You could take just what you need to live on and invest the rest elsewhere. You'd give up some of the tax-deferral advantages of the 401k, of course. (Perhaps you could roll over part of the 401k into an IRA first, and then take the rest as 72(t)?)
