You planned, saved, and sacrificed for decades, so why is spending in retirement so hard?



After a lifetime of discipline and diligent saving, retirement arrives… and with it, an unexpected emotional hurdle: switching from saving to spending.

→ Why spending after decades of saving triggers anxiety, even when you’re financially prepared
