Smart Wealth and Retirement

Hidden Retirement Risks: How to plan for them.


Listen Later

In this episode of the Smart Wealth & Retirement Podcast, financial advisors and retirement planners Jim Martin & Casey Bibb of Martin Wealth Solutions tackle the question that keeps many investors up at night — “What if ....?”

They unpack the “what ifs” that often cloud retirement planning — market volatility, inflation, healthcare costs, and unexpected life changes. Jim and Casey share how proper planning can turn uncertainty into confidence through diversification, income planning, and risk management. They also discuss how retirees can prepare emotionally and financially for market fluctuations, and why the right strategy matters more than trying to time the market.

This conversation offers a calm, rational look at how to protect your retirement plan when the future feels uncertain.
