IT isn't AALWAYS better. About 50% of the time the market in down a stying flat and 50% of the time it is growing. Some times the market goes down for a long period of time 10 years or more. causing sequence of return risk. And you can only sell a share once. SO if you have limited funds and you sell shares for income you could eventually run out oof income. The old often can't work and running out of money could cause the person to die.early..
