from Wisdom to Wealth · host drewstevens

Everyone is worried about the market crashing… But the real threat to your retirement may be something far more predictable—and far more dangerous. Taxes. In this episode, Drew Stevens, PhD, shares a powerful perspective from over four decades in financial services. He explains why so many retirees unknowingly walk into retirement with a major blind spot: they’ve built wealth, but they haven’t built a tax strategy. From IRAs and 401(k)s to Social Security taxation and IRMAA brackets, Drew breaks down how taxes can quietly erode your retirement income—and what you can do about it. You’ll walk away understanding: Why future tax increases are likely How tax diversification can protect your income The importance of strategic withdrawals Why “just paying taxes later” is not a strategy How to start reducing your lifetime tax burden today If you’ve never had a detailed tax conversation with your advisor, this episode could change everything.
