Markets may look strong on the surface, but what happens when the bubble finally bursts? This episode explores the tension between short-term volatility and long-term economic growth, and why patience isn’t easy—especially for those nearing retirement. Glenn Johnson explains how current conditions may signal an overdue correction, even as long-term foundations strengthen. He shares a real-life story of loss and recovery to highlight the emotional toll market swings can take, and why preparation matters as much as performance. The conversation focuses on defining acceptable risk, staying grounded during uncertainty, and thinking beyond headlines when planning for retirement.
