This Post by Erich Frerking clearly points out the dangers in retiring just when the stock market heads downwards and you do not protect your nest egg against large losses.
There is a link to a table showing how your nest egg would have performed from 2000 until now. Take a look and then take steps to protect your nest egg now.

    you are relying on the stock market's historical average returns to plan 
    withdrawals when you retire, you may be in for a very bad surprise. When 
    planning what they can withdraw from their retirement accounts every year,

    Averages</B>.</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.keepyourwealth.net/fixedindexannuity.htm"><FONT size="2" face="Verdana">Yes, the S&P 500 stock index

    lifespan. When you look at shorter, more relevant time periods, you can see
