Thank you all for your replies.
I figured there would be most questioning about the validity of the low expenses. They are accurate as I've tracked every transaction for many years. That being said, we are looking forward to opening up the purse strings more at some point and we definitely seem to be on our way.
I like the idea of trading out IRA contributions for more spending now. That way our travel budget could go up dramatically and we still wouldn't be withdrawing from the portfolio.
That's a good point about social security maybe not being what it says it's going to be. I'll keep that in mind.
