• Thank you, Jonathan, for this column--and all your recent reflections on your health situation. I appreciate your combination of wisdom, practicality and humility as you plan for your future. Though I've mostly been a lurker on the site, your writings have been helpful to me for a long time. I admire the generosity of your spirit and the wealth of your contributions. Having experienced cancer four times and now living without my stomach and part of my esophagus, I know that, despite our best intentions and hopes, there are still those "tears and sweat" moments you shared with us. May God bless you and yours and grant you strength and grace for all that is ahead. Warm regards.

• I would find helpful comments from experts/readers on best practices for strategizing Required Minimum Distributions annually. I read often about safe percentages of drawdowns or withdrawals annually, but those discussion do not often take RMD's into account. Is it better to take the RMD from all available sources on a percentage basis--or to move funds to a MM fund in anticipation of the RMD? Thanks for any thoughts!
