What if the biggest threat to your retirement isn’t the market—but outdated assumptions you haven’t cleaned out yet? In this episode, Evan Ward walks through common “spring cleaning” mistakes that can quietly derail retirement plans, especially for those within 10–15 years of stepping away from work. He explains why old strategies around investing, Social Security timing, and income withdrawals no longer fit today’s faster, more volatile economy. Evan also breaks down how to balance growth with preservation, reduce emotional decision‑making, and build a plan that adapts as retirement gets closer.
