What if the money sitting safely in your bank account is quietly working against you? In this episode of Retire Right, Chris Kichurchak unpacks the concept of “dead money”—cash that feels secure but may be losing purchasing power over time. He explores how inflation and taxes can erode savings, why emotional comfort often drives cash hoarding, and how understanding time horizons can reshape retirement planning. Chris also explains his three‑bucket approach, discusses the role of dividends and interest rates, and emphasizes why financial education is a critical first step before making any major decisions.
