Q: For my retirement, I have income coming from several streams. Rental income from property, employment income from an eight-week/year position (that I enjoy immensely), and a small RRSP account that I plan to use to earn 8% per year average and take principal and interest for monthly payments, using it up completely over 9 years, pushing off OAS and CPP until I’m 70 years old, when these benefits have maxed in value and can replace the depleted RRSP funds. Recently, I have been researching high income, 25% leveraged ETFs (I asked a question about them a few days ago, but this question takes the concept a step further), and I had the thought that it might be possible to buy a few ETFs for the RRSP, replacing all equities, and earn an average yield of 13%, which would cover the monthly payments while not depleting capital. I realized the capital may be reduced at the end of the 9 years, but likely not gone as in the original scenario, so any leftover funds would be a bonus. This would also free up time from managing my portfolio the way I do now, giving me more time to enjoy my retirement. Do you see any big holes in my theory? I wondered, for example how variable the dividends can be year over year. If this seems like a solid plan, could you suggest a portfolio of ETF’s (would 5-6 suffice?) that would serve this concept? (Note-I do have other investments, but they are not part of my monthly income streams, more a rainy-day fund.) Thanks!
