Retirement Income Mapping
Model how State Pension, defined benefit income, and drawdown interact, then set a sustainable withdrawal sequence for the early years of retirement.
Leaving paid work changes how money arrives each month. We map State Pension timing, any defined-benefit income, ISA withdrawals, and pension drawdown so you can see a realistic household income for the first five to ten years of retirement.
The written income map shows which accounts to draw from first, how market falls might affect spending, and when to review. It is advice for real living costs — council tax, heating, travel — not an abstract target return.
