Inflation may be quietly rewriting the rules of retirement planning. In this episode, Travis digs into why the classic 60/40 portfolio may no longer behave the way retirees expect and what modern tools may offer more stability. He explores how inflation, interest rate cycles, and changing market dynamics affect bonds, and why strategies like fixed index annuities, dividend portfolios, and covered-call income can help fill today’s retirement income gaps. Travis also breaks down his risk‑management approach, helping listeners understand how to match tools to their comfort level, needs, and long‑term goals as they plan for 2026 and beyond.
