Arrow,
Your, "If the 55/30 retiree takes the lump sum and rolls it
into a 401K or IRA then they protect the principle from taxation but
cant draw on it until 59 1/2 without incurring a penalty."

I don't think tax penalties, for early withdrawal, have to be assessed in all cases. I believe, by setting up a schedule for a fixed amount per year, you can begin withdrawing money out of a retirement plan, 5 or more years, prior to 59 1/2. However, I am not a CPA, so I advise you to consult a professional accountant for an expert definative answer.
Regards,
Jules
