What if your biggest retirement risk isn’t the market, but your own reactions to it? In this episode, Scott Schuett explores how emotional triggers—like fear, urgency, and even excitement—can influence financial decisions in retirement. Using the idea of Pavlov’s conditioning, the conversation highlights how market volatility, media headlines, and life events can push people into costly, reactionary choices. Scott also shares how common mistakes, like selling during downturns or claiming Social Security too early, often stem from emotion rather than strategy. It’s a look at why having a disciplined plan and staying grounded can make a meaningful difference when navigating uncertainty in retirement.
