Bad markets get the blame, but bad assumptions often do the real damage. In this episode from this past weekend’s radio show, financial advisor Jon Hicks breaks down the retirement assumptions many people don’t realize they’re making—about longevity, health care costs, taxes, market consistency, and even politics. The conversation explores how averages can mislead, how headlines can influence portfolios, and why stress‑testing assumptions matters when turning savings into long‑term income. Along the way, the show touches on Social Security uncertainty, political risk, and how overlooked details inside retirement accounts can quietly reshape financial outcomes.
