What is the biggest risk to your retirement?
According to Josh Bretl, it is usually the thing you haven't even thought of yet.
This week on Retire Well, Josh shares a sobering story about a neighbor's home ruined by a burst pipe while they were away for the winter.
It's a powerful reminder that a solid retirement plan must account for more than just the good times.
We also dive into the shifting world of retirement savings, exploring why your 401(k) was never actually designed to be a pension and how you can turn that nest egg into a reliable stream of lifetime income.
From navigating market volatility caused by global conflicts to understanding the complex new rules for inherited IRAs, Josh and Mark Elliott break down how to find clarity in the complexity.
Plus, we answer your mailbag questions about legacy, career changes, and more.
