On this episode, Eric Hutter discusses how a retirement portfolio “x-ray” can uncover hidden vulnerabilities, income gaps, and tax challenges. The conversation explores Social Security uncertainty, the shift from pensions to self-funded retirement, the impact of rising healthcare and living costs, and the role guaranteed income strategies may play in creating greater retirement confidence. Eric also explains common misconceptions about annuities and the importance of balancing growth, protection, and long-term income planning.
