Winning Retirement Like Baseball: It’s a Long Game

You can win the savings game—and still lose at the tax finish line if you’re not careful.
In this episode of Smart Money Moves, Keith Collins uses a Super Bowl–worthy analogy to explain how taxes can quietly erode retirement income. He unpacks common “trap doors” retirees face, including Required Minimum Distributions, Social Security taxation, survivor tax shifts, and unexpected capital gains. The conversation highlights why tax surprises often intensify in retirement, not disappear, and why proactive planning matters before withdrawals begin. Keith shares real‑world examples of where retirees stumble late in the game—and how thoughtful strategy can help avoid costly missteps.
