Retirement Myths That Don't Survive in Real Life
Mon Feb 02 2026
Why do you believe what you believe about retirement? Spoiler: it's probably not because it's true; but because you've heard it repeated over and over.
In this week's show, we challenge the most repeated (and most dangerous) retirement assumptions. The 4% rule, "taxes go down" in retirement, "we'll adjust later," and the idea that markets always come back all sound comforting… until real life shows up. We'll break down why these beliefs deserve a closer look, what actually holds up under pressure, and answer listener questions along the way. Expect a few surprises.
Listen in.
