Stay tuned as we explore some of the flawed calculations that many retirees make regarding their financial future. We’ll debunk some common misconceptions about investment returns, withdrawal rates, and the dangers of overspending in retirement. Are you basing your retirement dreams on “fuzzy math?”

Here’s what we discuss in today’s show:

  • The impact that market volatility can have on retirement savings
  • Setting realistic expectations and understanding risk in retirement planning
  • Overspending in your early retirement years
  • Outdated rules of thumb for retirement withdrawals
