Definition
The highest annual withdrawal percentage that survived the modeled period and rules. Historical SWR is sample-specific.
The classic "4% rule" means withdrawing 4% of the starting balance per year, adjusted for inflation.
Terms are defined in the context of how ArthaPilot uses them. For authoritative definitions, consult the SEC, IRS, or a qualified financial advisor.
