I'm newly susceptible to the Medicare torpedo so am aiming for more precision in my income planning. Are there surprises I need to watch out for in terms of distributions? Investments are mainly the usual index funds plus some tilts: VTSAX, VTIAX, IJS, VSS, IEMG, and large cap value. And since it is MAGI I need to consider the muni funds VCADX and VWIUX. The taxable portfolio hasn't changed much aside from reinvested dividends. CD and savings account interest is pretty easy to estimate. For those in a similar boat, what sort of year over year increase are you seeing?
How much margin do folks typically leave in estimated MAGI from the next IRMAA tier?
