What if the retirement number you’ve been chasing isn’t the number that matters most? In this episode, the Linskys examine the common belief that you need $1 million—or more—to retire comfortably. They discuss why retirement success is often driven by income planning, cash flow strategy, and preparing for unexpected expenses rather than focusing solely on portfolio size. Through a real client example, they explain how assigning purpose to different assets can help create a more sustainable retirement approach and shift the conversation from account balances to long-term financial confidence.
