What if the biggest retirement risk isn’t the market—but oversimplified assumptions about spending? In this episode, Jon Hicks challenges common retirement “rules of thumb” and explains why averages and generic withdrawal strategies often overlook what retirement really costs. The conversation breaks down why spending can look very different in the early, middle, and later years of retirement, and how even small overlooked expenses can add up over time. Jon emphasizes the importance of understanding personal spending patterns and approaching income planning with flexibility rather than one‑size‑fits‑all formulas.
