The Hidden Math That Breaks Retirement Plans

One market downturn at the wrong time can permanently change a retirement. In this episode, Tim Wood explains why timing matters far more once withdrawals begin and how sequence‑of‑returns risk can quietly derail even well‑funded plans. The discussion contrasts asset growth with income planning, explores why moving entirely to cash can backfire against inflation, and highlights how guaranteed income can reduce stress during volatile markets. Real‑world stories show how simplifying accounts, securing income first, and planning for distribution—not just accumulation—shape confidence and flexibility throughout retirement.
