Taxes, Turbulence, and the Retirement Paycheck

Annuities are back in the spotlight—but are they solving a problem retirees can’t ignore? Kevin Madden breaks down why more advisors are rethinking retirement income strategies, focusing on cash flow, guaranteed income, and reducing reliance on market swings. The conversation explores how combining annuities with dividends and bonds can create stability, why emotional investing near retirement can derail plans, and how a written income plan helps organize “one big pile of money.” Kevin also highlights the impact of unexpected early retirement and why planning ahead can bring clarity to life after work.

Inflation’s Quiet Impact on Retirement Income

What happens to your retirement income when markets dip and withdrawals are still due? On this episode, Kevin Madden discusses why relying solely on market-based withdrawals can strain a long-term plan—especially during downturns. They explore building a written retirement roadmap, using multiple income sources, and the role guaranteed-style income streams can play alongside investments. The conversation also covers volatility, sequence-of-returns risk, and why having cash reserves and annual plan reviews may help retirees stay disciplined instead of reactive when uncertainty hits.
