With Medicare Annual Enrollment right around the corner, we're going to temporarily pause our Thursday night Zoom meetings so we can focus on helping our Medicare clients review their coverage and prepare for the upcoming year.

But don't worry! You can still catch up on our previous sessions covering Medicare, protecting your retirement savings, creating lifetime income, and much more!

📹 This week's Optimized Retirement video is ready—and we're starting a new series on 5 Retirement Income Scenarios!

You've spent decades saving and accumulating money for retirement. But eventually the question changes from “How do I build it?” to:
“How do I turn what I've saved into the retirement income I need?”

In this week's session, I introduced my 5 Retirement Income Scenarios—five common situations I see with retirees and those approaching retirement. We talked about:

✅ Growing money you don't need yet�
✅ Building future income while you “let it cook”�
✅ Creating income while maintaining flexibility and control�
✅ Turning a portion of your savings into a paycheck for life�
✅ Combining growth and lifetime income with a hybrid approach

Over the next five weeks, I'm going to take a deeper dive into each scenario and show you how they work. You may not relate to all five—but there's a good chance one or two will sound a lot like you.

📘 I also created a complimentary guide called “5 Retirement Income Scenarios: How Do You Turn a Lifetime of Savings Into a Confident Retirement?”

You've accumulated the money. Now let's talk about what you need that money to DO for you in retirement.

🎥 MISSED MY LIVE CALL LAST NIGHT? HERE’S THE RECORDING!

Last night I talked about 3 Reasons to Add Guarantees to Your Retirement — and why this may become even more important as you get closer to or enter retirement.

In this short presentation, I answer three questions:

✅ How much of your retirement should you really leave exposed to market risk?

✅ What could replace the pension that so many retirees no longer have?

✅ Could having more guaranteed income actually help you enjoy retirement MORE?

That third one may surprise you. I share some interesting research about how retirees tend to spend when they know another paycheck is coming.

And I’m not talking about changing everything you’re doing.

The bigger question is simply:

Does it make sense to protect SOME of what you’ve worked so hard for?

▶️ Watch the recording and see what you think.

I’ll be glad to send you a copy!
