The Shamrock Shake Lesson Most Retirees Miss

Seven common assumptions may quietly undermine even well‑funded retirements. In this episode, Abe Abich walks through the beliefs many people hold about longevity, health, spending, markets, inflation, work, inheritances, and taxes—and why those assumptions often don’t match real‑world retirement outcomes. The conversation explores how expenses actually shift over time, why taxes can rise after work ends, and how market volatility and healthcare costs change the equation. A practical discussion focused on replacing guesswork with planning as retirement moves from accumulation to distribution.
