On this episode of Retire Wise with Shawn Maloney, we focus on one of the most important questions in retirement: How do you turn a lifetime of savings into dependable income that lasts?

Shawn explains why a “pile of money” isn’t the same as a plan, how today’s retirees are balancing on a two-legged stool of Social Security and personal savings, and the risks that come with relying too heavily on market-based withdrawals. We break down sequence of returns risk, building a protected income floor, closing income gaps, and why forward-looking tax planning plays a critical role in making your money last.
