Welcome to a new week here on the Retirement Quick Tips podcast. I’m your host Ashley Micciche, co-owner of True North Retirement Advisors, an independent financial advisory practice managing $325 million in client assets. I’m a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor, and I started this podcast because I love helping people just like you gain clarity and make a plan for the retirement you envision. 

In case you missed last week, I just rebranded the One Minute Retirement Tip Podcast to the new name - retirement quick tips. Nothing has changed. Same content that you love (otherwise you wouldn’t be here, right? Just a new look and a new name. 

The theme this week on the podcast is: 5 Ways To Ruin Your Retirement 

As is often the case with the podcast, an article I read becomes the inspiration for the theme of the podcast. That’s what happened this week. I read an article about ways you can fail in retirement, and I started to think about ways I’ve seen the best laid plans fail for clients and people I know. 

It’s an interesting exercise to think about...how might your retirement plans fail?..

So this week on the podcast, I’ll talk about common ways your retirement can fail and safeguards you can put in place to protect you. I’ll focus on things you can control, like saying no to your adult children, rather than things you can’t control - like runaway inflation. 

My hope is that you’ll think about retirement risks in a new and different way - not just based on how the economy or the stock market is doing but how your actions and the things within your control can lead you to success or failure over a 20-30 year retirement. 

That’s it for today. Come on back tomorrow, where I’ll talk about how that vacation home that you’ve been dreaming of could be the cause of a retirement demise. 

Thanks for listening! My name is Ashley Micciche...and this is the Retirement Quick Tips podcast.
