The Bonds versus Bullion interactive calculator allows investors to use their own assumptions to compare an investment in bonds to BMG Funds.
Traditional investment thinking would lead an investor who requires income for retirement to believe that bonds are their best solution.
During high inflationary periods, a better alternative to this method may be the Systemic Withdrawal Plan with BMG Funds. The investor essentially sells a portion of their annual gains to achieve their cash flow needs. Depending on the prevailing interest rate and annual inflation, this alternative may allow cash flow to keep pace with inflation while minimizing principal erosion.
