Most retirement plans are built around numbers — returns, withdrawal rates, asset allocations.

But research shows that retirement quality of life is predicted by something far simpler.

In this video, I break down three critical retirement questions that research shows can reliably predict how satisfied, confident, and fulfilled someone feels later in life  regardless of portfolio size.

These aren’t math questions.
They’re not about beating the market.
And they’re rarely asked by advisors.

Yet they expose the biggest hidden risks in most retirement plans:
• Anxiety that doesn’t show up in projections
• Spending fear even with “enough” money
• Regret from retiring on paper but not in real life

If you’re approaching retirement, or already retired, this conversation may change how you evaluate your plan entirely.

This video is especially relevant if:
• You’re within 5–10 years of retirement
• You’ve saved well but still feel uncertain
• Your plan looks good… but doesn’t feel good
• You want clarity, not complexity

👉 If you want a retirement plan built around real life, not just math, subscribe for weekly insights designed to help you retire with confidence.
Most Retirees Ignore These 3 Questions
Should you retire at 62 and start taking Social Security? In this video, we break down five powerful reasons why claiming early might actually be the smartest move for certain retirees. From health considerations and life expectancy, to investing the money yourself, to the break-even math almost nobody talks about — this is the straightforward perspective most people never hear. Your Social Security decision should fit your health, your finances, and your life.

5 Reasons You SHOULD Retire and Take Social Security at Age 62
Most people wait too long to retire — not because of money, but because they don’t understand the Golden Window. Research shows your best retirement years aren’t 70+. They’re 58–68 — the years when you still have the health, energy, and freedom to actually enjoy the lifestyle you spent decades saving for. Every year you work past that window, you're not just gaining money… you're trading away time you can never buy back. You don’t retire because conditions are perfect. You retire because your plan works under imperfect conditions — and because your life is worth more than “one more year.
