My thoughts exactly, I share the same sentiment. Also, Dividend Growth Investing is a fully automated way to retire, the 4% rule is not as you may have to adjust withdrawal rates depending on the market, inadvertently creating your own sequence risk on top of the already existing sequence risk.

The 4% Rule has always felt like a game of chance to me. This is a great explanation of why it’s not a reliable retirement plan - at least not for me. Dividend growth investing is a long process but hopefully it will provide a long runway of wealth to pass down to my kids!
