Market history shows that even strong bull runs can reverse faster than many retirees expect. On this episode, Mike Riedmiller discusses why retirement planning can’t rely solely on market performance or a single account. He explains how diversified income sources, tax-aware strategies, and long-term planning help retirees manage volatility without being forced into tough decisions at the wrong time. The conversation also touches on Roth strategies, planning for taxes in retirement, and why legacy planning matters when passing on homes, farms, or other illiquid assets.
