Navigating the Retirement Risk Zone

The Retirement Risk Zone is the period of time that begins roughly 10 years before retirement and ends 10 years into retirement. During that time, you will make many of the most consequential financial decisions of your life, including your exact retirement date and age, when to claim social security, how to claim Medicare, how to reposition your retirement assets, as well as how to create an income from retirement savings. So much focus is put on the accumulation (Savings phase) of retirement, or the distribution (spending phase) of retirement that the risk zone often gets overlooked despite its importance. This podcast is designed to not only help you navigate the retirement risk zone but thrive in retirement.
