Dr. Rice has savings of $180,000. The investments are yielding 9 percent interest. Dr. Rice also has $12,000 in a savings account at 5% interest. Rice wants to keep the saving account level in real terms for emergencies.

Dr. Rice’s basic living expenses average about $1,500 per month and he plans to spend $500 a month on travel and hobbies.

To maintain this planned standard of living, Rice will rely on his investment portfolio. The interest on the portfolio is $16,200 per year (9 percent of $180,000) or $1,350 per month. Dr. Rice will also receive $750 per month in Social Security payments for the rest of his life. This payments are indexed for inflation. That is, the payments will automatically increase in proportion to changes in the consumer price index. Dr. Rice is concerned with inflation because although his Social Security payments increase with inflation, his portfolio interest will not increase.

Dr. Rice needs your advice. Dr. Rice thinks he will live 20 more years and is willing to use up all of his investment portfolio over that period. He also wants his monthly spending to increase with inflation. Can Dr. Rice afford his planned lifestyle in retirement? What would you advise Dr. Rice to do?
