The Constants & Variables Impacting Your Retirement Future

This episode focuses on the constants and variables of retirement, providing insights on market volatility, income planning, and lifestyle analysis.

Toni shares a relatable analogy, comparing income planning to cutting a juicy steak on a slippery plate. Without a stable foundation, it's nearly impossible to enjoy the meal. Similarly, a stable and predictable income is important for maintaining your lifestyle in retirement. This foundation allows you to build other financial strategies around it, helping ensure a comfortable and confident retirement.

Tyler points out the common misconception of shifting more into bonds to get conservative as you near retirement. She explains that during situations like the pandemic, both bonds and stocks can perform poorly, making it important to have a well-rounded income plan that considers various market conditions.
