Why people with enough money still worry about retiring

Why people with enough money still worry about retiring

"I've done well with my money — so why don't I feel ready to retire?"

We hear it every week. In this episode, Denis Bisson, Eric Petersen, Jim Lao and Ryan Genoe unpack why the math can look clean while the feeling stays messy — and why retirement isn't a number you hit, it's a system you build.

Inside the episode

1. The missing plan. Most people chase a lump sum instead of knowing the spending it has to support.

2. Sequence-of-returns risk. A market drop in your first years of withdrawals can do far more damage than you'd expect.

3. Surprise costs. Health shocks, tuition, and a child's down payment — run the scenario before you say yes.
