Could helping your kids through college be putting your own retirement at risk?
In this episode, Tony Jackson explores where retirement income really comes from today and why Social Security, part-time work, and personal savings play a bigger role than many expect. He discusses the shift away from pensions, the dangers of tapping retirement accounts for emergencies, and the importance of balancing family goals with long-term financial security. The conversation also covers retirement budgeting, inflation, healthcare costs, legacy planning, and why defining what retirement looks like for you is a critical first step toward building a lasting income strategy.
