What if the biggest retirement mistake isn’t what you earn—but how you plan to use it? In this episode, Evan Ward breaks down why building a reliable income strategy is important as you transition into retirement. He explains how having a solid financial “foundation” can help reduce emotional decision-making and create a stronger plan. The conversation also highlights key timing windows—from catch-up contributions to Social Security and required distributions—and why missing them can impact long-term flexibility. It’s a practical look at how thoughtful planning can turn uncertainty into a clearer path forward.
