How to Know When You’ve Saved Enough


Listen Later

In this episode of EWA’s FIN-LYT Podcast, Matt Blocki joins EWA members to dive into one of the most personal and complex financial questions: How do you know when you’ve saved enough?


They explore why traditional rules of thumb like “you need $10 million to retire” often fall short, and how defining “enough” depends on your lifestyle, goals, and values. It's not a static number. Through real client examples, they illustrate how over-saving can quietly rob families of joy and time, while under-saving can create long-term financial stress.


The discussion covers key assumptions behind a sound financial plan. This includes spending habits, inflation, taxes, and investment returns, and why constant recalibration is essential as life evolves. They also share how intentional spending and well-structured savings can eliminate future regret, ensuring clients enjoy today while staying financially secure for tomorrow.


Whether you’re a high-income professional, physician, or business owner, this episode offers a practical framework for balancing present enjoyment with future independence while finding confidence in knowing you’re truly on track.
