Consider the scenario where a retiree, say, between the ages of 70 -75, is withdrawing relatively large amounts from her living annuity (ILLA) while her reasonable life expectancy is another 15 – 20 years out. Unless the retiree will receive an unexpected windfall, fantastic investment returns, or manage a drastic reduction in living expenses going forward, it is very likely that the retiree will experience severe cash flow constraints ten years and more from now.
