Retirement Roadmap

Playing It Too Safe in Retirement Can Be Dangerous


Listen Later

Retirement planning isn’t just about avoiding risk — it’s about understanding which risks actually matter.
For many retirees and near-retirees, playing it “too safe” can quietly become one of the biggest threats to long-term financial security.

In this episode of Retirement Roadmap with Master Plan Retirement Consultants, Evan and retirement planner Mark Fricks discuss why overly conservative portfolios can struggle to keep up with inflation, how emotional reactions to market downturns can lead to missed recoveries, and how proper diversification and income planning can help your retirement last decades — not just years.
