What if the riskiest part of retirement isn’t the market—but waiting too long to enjoy it? In this episode of The Retirement Solution, pulled from this past weekend’s radio show, Jon Hicks breaks down the decisions facing those approaching retirement in 2026. The conversation covers income planning, healthcare costs, market volatility, gold and silver headlines, and why spreadsheets don’t always reflect real life. From shifting out of growth‑only thinking to evaluating alternative assets and Social Security timing, this episode examines how retirement choices affect both money and quality of life.
