What if one mindset shift could change how much of your retirement income you actually keep? In this episode, Brooks breaks down why the new $6,000 senior deduction is more than a tax-season perk... it’s a reminder that strategic, year‑round tax planning can meaningfully lower lifetime taxes. He explains the difference between reactive filers and proactive planners, how tools like Roth conversions, income timing, Social Security management, and capital‑gain harvesting work together, and why retirees can control more than they think.
