I'm 63 With $1.5M. Can I Spend $10K a Month?
You’ve saved $1.5 million. Now comes the real test.
Can it produce $10,000 a month, or will that pace drain your portfolio?
Most retirees do not get a clear answer until it is too late.
The issue is not just how much you have. It is whether your portfolio was built to pay you, not just grow.
That difference can determine whether your money lasts decades or starts breaking down early.
Sequence of returns, taxes on withdrawals, healthcare costs, and whether the 4% rule still applies all play a role.
Fiduciary advisors created a breakdown showing what drives sustainable income and why the same $1.5M can produce very different outcomes.
If you have $1M or more invested, do not guess.

The Growth Dublin Isn't Seeing (Because It's Just Outside)
In a lot of ways, Dublin is close to built out — there's not much land left inside city limits for major new development. Just outside our borders, though, growth hasn't slowed down at all.
The latest sign of that: NRP Group broke ground this week on OSU East, a 336-unit apartment community at 2575 W. Dublin-Granville Road, near the Ohio State Airport. It's the first phase of a project that could eventually bring nearly 900 homes to that stretch — a genuinely big development by any measure. This one sits in Columbus city limits and Worthington City Schools — its biggest impact on us is likely to be traffic on Dublin-Granville, not our schools.
It's not the only kind of growth happening around us, either. Plenty of smaller projects are landing in the townships and corridors that surround Dublin too, and together they add up — part of why Dublin City Schools enrollment keeps climbing even though the city's own population has held roughly flat.
Whatever side of Dublin's own development debates you land on, it's worth keeping an eye on what's happening at our edges. Some of it is big on its own, like this one. Some of it adds up more quietly. Either way, it doesn't stop just because Dublin's city limits do.

Heads Up: Sirens Near Schools Today
If you’re driving near Scioto or Jerome today and spot a line of emergency vehicles outside, don’t worry — there’s no emergency.
Dublin City Schools is running a district-wide safety and reunification drill, and you may notice more buses and emergency vehicles around the schools than usual.
No students are involved. It’s just staff practicing what happens if there’s ever an emergency serious enough that students can’t simply be dismissed from their school.
It’s the kind of preparation you don’t think much about — until the day it really matters.

Big News for the Memorial's Next Chapter
The Memorial just got some good news about where it stands in the golf world going forward. Starting in 2028, the PGA Tour is splitting into two tiers — a top-level Championship Series and a second-tier Challenger Series — and the Memorial's locked in as one of roughly 23 to 24 events in that top tier.
That puts it in the same company as the Players Championship, the Presidents Cup, and the Ryder Cup. The Championship Series will run February through August, featuring the Tour's best players going head-to-head all season.
Tournament director Dan Sullivan put it simply: being included means the Memorial stays true to what Jack and Barbara Nicklaus built back in 1976 — golf's greatest traditions, with the game's most accomplished players still showing up every year.
Good news for Muirfield Village, and all of us.

A Note From Nick
You Asked How to Help. Here’s How.
A few of you have reached out asking how you can support Dublin Daily — and honestly, it means a lot just to hear that. Here's what actually helps.
The single biggest thing: forward this to a neighbor, a friend, or anyone who loves Dublin and might not know we exist yet. Word of mouth is everything for a local newsletter. Or just share dublinohiodaily.com next time Dublin comes up in conversation.
If you ever have a tip — a local business worth spotlighting, an event coming up, something happening in your neighborhood — hit reply and tell us. That's the fuel that keeps this going.
We also have sponsors who make Dublin Daily free. If something catches your eye, click their links — it makes a real difference.
Thanks for being here. Dublin is a better place to live when we're all looking out for each other — and that's really what all this is about.
