What happens if the market drops just as you start pulling income from your portfolio? On this episode, Steve Aul breaks down sequence of returns risk and why investing for retirement looks very different from investing during your working years. Steve explains the importance of portfolio diversification, regular risk reviews, and understanding how taxes, Social Security, Medicare, and annuities fit into retirement planning. The conversation also highlights the role of financial literacy, managing debt, and using the right financial tools at the right time to better navigate long-term retirement decisions.
