Retirement planning sounds simple until the details start shaping your future. In this episode of The Retirement Playbook, Rick and Granger Hughes break down some of the most misunderstood parts of preparing for retirement, from Medicare enrollment timelines to how working longer can change your income picture. They take on common assumptions, including whether Social Security alone is enough and why spending often looks different than people expect once work stops. The conversation centers on why education matters and how a retirement strategy should reflect individual goals rather than generic rules of thumb. By unpacking real-world scenarios and persistent myths, Rick and Granger highlight the value of approaching retirement with clarity, context, and a plan designed for how life actually unfolds.
