In this episode of Financial Safari, Coach Pete is joined by retirement-income expert and bestselling author Tom Hegna for a conversation about building a retirement designed to provide both security and enjoyment. Tom explains the difference between “paychecks” for essential expenses and “playchecks” for travel, hobbies, and other experiences—and why retirement planning requires a different approach than simply accumulating investments.
The discussion explores guaranteed lifetime income, Roth conversions, future tax risk, cash-value life insurance, long-term-care protection, and transferring wealth to future generations. Tom also explains the “retirement smile,” why spending often changes throughout retirement, and how a dependable income strategy may give lifelong savers the confidence to enjoy the money they worked so hard to build.
