Most couples avoid talking about money — yet those conversations may matter more than any investment choice. In this episode of The Retirement Salsa Podcast, Mike DiSalvo explores four essential money discussions every couple should have as they approach retirement. From defining needs versus wants, to aligning risk tolerance, planning for “what‑if” scenarios, and keeping financial records organized, the conversation highlights why silence around money can create stress and confusion. With humor, real-life stories, and practical perspective, the episode examines how open dialogue can help couples move from uncertainty to clarity — together — while also setting the stage for healthier financial conversations with the next generation.
