Can You Really Afford to Retire? Turning Retirement Math Into a Real Plan

from Winning Retirement Radio · host Greg and Kristin Taylor, and Kristen Charles

Being told you’re “97% likely” to have enough money for retirement may sound reassuring, but retirement is more than a probability on a spreadsheet. In this episode of Winning Retirement, Greg and Kristen explain how to determine whether you’re truly ready to retire by looking at reliable income, Social Security and pensions, lifestyle expenses, income gaps, inflation, and market risk. They also discuss why the transition from saving money to withdrawing it requires a different strategy and how segmenting assets for income, growth, and liquidity can help create a more purposeful retirement plan. Because the real question isn’t simply, “Do I have enough to retire?” It’s “Do I have a plan that lets me live the retirement I want with confidence?”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
