A fun side gig in retirement could trigger an unexpected financial wake‑up call. This episode of Vision Wealth: A New View on Retirement explores how part‑time income after retirement can ripple through taxes, Social Security, and Medicare in ways many people don’t anticipate. Ben and Megan Smith unpack why earning extra money is only part of the equation, touching on purpose, identity, and how work can shape life after a career. From income thresholds and tax penalties to the psychology of “unretirement,” the conversation highlights why retirement planning isn’t just about dollars – it’s about designing a life that actually works.
