Are You Ready for Retirement? Navigating the Financial Zone

What if some of the most common retirement beliefs are actually setting you up for costly mistakes?

In this episode of The Retirement Readiness Playbook, Kevin and Lauren Geiger break down several retirement myths that can impact your financial future. They discuss why many retirees spend more, not less, after leaving the workforce, how Social Security was designed to supplement rather than replace retirement income, and why a large 401(k) balance may not be as large as it appears after taxes. The conversation also covers Roth conversion opportunities, required minimum distributions, investment risk in retirement, healthcare planning, and the realities of long-term care. Learn why retirement planning is not a one-time event and how a personalized strategy can help you navigate the years ahead with greater confidence.
