The most important retirement milestone may not be the one on your birthday cake. In this episode, Stuart Seegmiller discusses why there is no longer a one-size-fits-all retirement age and how key milestones like ages 62, 65, 67, and 70 can impact Social Security, Medicare, income planning, and retirement decisions. He also explores how longevity, health, work preferences, and personal goals can influence the timing of retirement. Learn why the right retirement date is often less about age and more about your unique financial picture.

Do You See Your Savings as Income or Off-Limits Money?

Your vision for retirement can fall apart quickly if you don’t understand what it actually costs. In this episode, the conversation explores the growing gap between retirement expectations and real‑world expenses, from inflation and taxes to major decisions like selling real estate or creating income. The discussion highlights how overlooked tax consequences, Medicare impacts, and rising costs can catch retirees off guard—and why easing into retirement often works better than making big, all‑at‑once moves. It’s a candid look at turning retirement dreams into numbers you can plan around, not guesses you hope work out.
