About this episode
Retirement planning may need a major rethink as longer lifespans and earlier retirement stretch what was once a standard 30-year retirement into 40 years or more. Rebie and Bo explain how longevity risk, inflation, bear markets, healthcare expenses, required minimum distributions, Social Security taxes, Medicare IRMAA surcharges, and the widow’s tax can affect your retirement income. Plus, learn how tax diversification, the three-bucket strategy, HSA investing, and strategic Roth conversions can help create a more resilient retirement plan. If you’re wondering how much you need to retire, when to retire, or how to make retirement savings last, this is where to start.
