You want to move to Hawaii when you retire (on your 65th birthday). You estimate that it will cost you $50,000 to make the move on your 65th birthday. Starting on your 65th birthday and ending on your 84th birthday (all withdrawals are at the beginning of the year), you will withdraw $40,000 for annual living expenses. Assume the interest rate is 4%.
