Charleston’s Retirement Coach Brandon Bowen uses a Super Bowl analogy to explain why retirement success doesn’t happen by accident.

Through real‑world examples, Brandon walks through how planning brings structure and clarity to the retirement transition. It’s a practical discussion focused on turning savings into income and understanding the steps needed to move forward with confidence.
