Retirement Planning for Women: Longevity, Income, and Risk
Women often face a different retirement planning equation. Longer life expectancies, career interruptions related to caregiving, lower average retirement savings, and the increased likelihood of managing finances alone later in life can all influence retirement income decisions. This episode examines Social Security timing, survivor benefits, pension elections, long-term care risk, and the role of guaranteed income in creating a more dependable retirement structure. The discussion also explains why married couples should evaluate how the financial plan would function after the death of either spouse. The episode offers a practical framework for understanding these risks and building a retirement plan that can continue working through changing family and financial circumstances.
