In this episode of A Slice of Advice, Kelton Burgess unpacks why so many Americans are pausing retirement contributions, the real risks of tapping long‑term accounts for short‑term bills, and how cash buffers fit into a high‑cost world. From everyday budget pressure to Warren Buffett’s massive cash stance, the conversation centers on balancing today’s realities with tomorrow’s retirement—without panic, guilt, or false certainty.
