Listen Later

Mark Zagurski explores Play #2 of the Seven Plays series: determining how much money you need in retirement. He challenges the conventional rule of thumb of replacing 70-80% of pre-retirement income, citing Morningstar research showing replacement rates vary from 54% to 87% based on lifestyle and expenses. Mark discusses the “go-go,” “slow-go,” and “no-go” phases of retirement and how expenses like healthcare and travel can shift over time. He emphasizes the need for a personalized plan to account for Social Security, retirement accounts, and personal savings.


You’ll learn:

→ Why retirement income needs vary widely based on lifestyle and circumstances.

→ The three phases of retirement and their impact on spending.

→ How Social Security, retirement accounts, and savings form your income foundation.

→ Why generic rules of thumb fall short in retirement planning.

→ The importance of tailoring your plan to your specific expenses and goals.


“In retirement, every day is essentially a Saturday. Don’t think of retirement as a simple accumulation goal for only paying your bills or expenses.” - Mark Zagurski
