CLASSIC EPISODE The 8 Pillars of Rocking Retirement: Resilience and Optimization
This month, we're revisiting the eight pillars of rocking retirement. Today, we focus on the second two financial pillars: having a resilient plan of record and optimizing the plan to enhance the journey. Many people are good at setting goals and determining feasibility, but often overlook the importance of resilience in their retirement plan. We delve into how to stress test your plan for various risks like bear markets, health care shocks, and premature death, and how to build redundancies to make your plan more robust. We also discuss optimizing your plan with tax strategies, investment implementation, and legacy planning.
