Planning for retirement often focuses on saving, investing, and building wealth. But what about the end of retirement?

In this episode of The About Podcast, hosts Jeremy Scott and Roy Hucke continue their conversation on a topic many people avoid but everyone should prepare for: end-of-retirement planning. This is Part 2 of the discussion, shifting the focus to the financial and legal decisions that can make life easier for you and your loved ones when the unexpected happens.

Roy shares practical insights from working with clients and walks through the key things people should consider before they lose the ability to make decisions for themselves and after they pass away. From powers of attorney and long-term care planning to wills, probate, and beneficiary designations, this episode highlights why planning ahead is one of the greatest gifts you can give your family.
