Well, I just passed my one-year retirement anniversary and my finances are actually doing pretty well.... despite the fact that I still haven't received my first social security retirement check. In four days, it will have been one year since I filed my applications. That first check will be backdated to when I filed, so it will be a big one. The SSA is extremely backed up, but hey.... Biden wants to hire another 87,000 IRS agents. 
My IRA account is down $175,000 from this time last year, but I've withdrawn over $120,000 in profits over the last 12 months. Fortunately, I haven't had to sell any of our assets off at a loss, and barring anything unforeseen, I don't see a scenario where I'll be forced to.
The market has been on a roller coaster ride lately and I've told my broker to take profits where he can, preferably those producing ROIs of 12% or better.
