The Issue Of Overspending In Retirement

In this podcast, Chad & Rob discuss the importance of budgeting in retirement. They highlight the risk of overspending in the early years of retirement, especially when faced with a market correction. Burton suggests using a baseline approach, such as living off 70-80% of current income, or looking at net income after taxes to determine retirement spending. He also mentions the need to account for healthcare costs, as retirees are responsible for their own healthcare until they reach 65 and become eligible for Medicare.
