What happens when your paycheck disappears, but your bills don’t?
This episode breaks down the simple but often overlooked questions that shape a retirement plan: what’s coming in, what’s going out, and what you’ve saved. The conversation explores why understanding cash flow becomes more challenging without a steady paycheck, how Social Security and pensions factor into predictable income, and the role your savings must play in filling the gaps. It also examines the risks of relying on market performance alone and why separating “paycheck” money from “playcheck” money can help manage uncertainty. Plus, key considerations around debt, Medicare decisions, and planning for life’s financial unknowns.
