There’s no “magic number” for retirement—only whether your income actually supports the life you want. Gary Gardner & Vicki Miller break down why averages like $5,300 a month can be misleading and how true retirement planning starts with your personal lifestyle, not a generic benchmark. The conversation explores the shift from saving to income planning, the decline of pensions, the role of Social Security, and how tools like annuities, CDs, and portfolio strategies can help create stability amid inflation, market swings, and rising healthcare costs. It’s all about identifying income gaps and building a flexible plan that reflects how you actually want to live.
