What if everything you’ve been told about retirement spending is off the mark? This episode challenges the idea of relying on fixed percentages and explores why real retirement planning centers on lifestyle, not rules of thumb. Jimmy Lin explains why many retirees spend less than expected, the risks of underspending out of fear, and how a “retirement smile” can reshape spending over time. The conversation highlights common budgeting blind spots like healthcare costs and the importance of aligning your resources with your goals. It’s a look at what happens when planning shifts from generic formulas to a strategy built around how you actually want to live.
