The 15% Fee That Can Nuke Your Nest Egg — Coach Pete’s “Financial Fill-Up” Plan Is the Escape Hatch

Coach Pete and the crew get straight to the point in this episode: if you’re not squeezing every ounce out of your 401(k), you’re leaving real money behind. They break down the Roth vs. traditional decision in plain English—what you’re really betting on with taxes—and why “safe money” isn’t about being scared, it’s about building a foundation that can survive market chaos. From lifetime income planning to dialing in asset allocation (how you spread money across investments) based on your risk tolerance (how much volatility you can stomach), Coach also calls out the “financial termites” that quietly eat your savings—fees, bad timing, and sloppy strategy. Bottom line: stop drifting and start driving your plan.
