Taxes may be the biggest surprise waiting for you in retirement—and they don’t go away when your paycheck does. In this episode, Steve Standley breaks down the top three priorities retirees should focus on as a new year begins, including how tax laws, RMDs, Social Security taxation, and IRMAA can quietly reshape your income. He explains why tax preparation and tax planning are not the same, why assumptions about lower taxes in retirement often backfire, and how a personalized strategy helps you manage income from multiple buckets more efficiently.
