Drawdown: paying for a short year

A year that costs more than it earns, as in retirement, is paid for from savings, in the drawdown order. Drawdown above the chart opens it; so does the card that says the money runs out, and Settings.

The default order is cash and offset first, then investments, then super once it can be reached. Drag an account to change its place. Its Terms say whether it May be drawn on or is Never touched, how far down it may go, and the most it gives in any one year.

Super can only be drawn once its owner reaches preservation age and stops work. Property and other assets marked to sell if necessary are sold before a year is left short.

Trying a different order in what-if mode (Plus) shows what the order changes, beside the plan.
