Thanks, Edward. I’m inclined to agree that for younger people, a total return approach might work better. And yes, I do this myself with some other investments I hold. As I am now retired my circumstances have changed and income is a bigger priority for me. I am looking forward to seeing how my Nutmeg income portfolio performs going forward. It is obviously a bit of an experiment for me.

There’s some really insightful research from Vanguard about how a ‘total return’ approach, usually leads to higher returns with less risk. For those looking to optimise how much they need to retire, this is key, where an income focused approach can require a much higher level of starting wealth. Have you looked into this?
