In this September Retirement Update, Chris Cyr, CPA, CFP®, shares several important year-end tax planning reminders, including estimated taxes, required minimum distributions, charitable giving and Roth conversions.

Chris also weighs in on the debate over social media restrictions for children and takes a look at the economy, housing, AI spending, Nvidia, stock market valuations and what Cyr Financial is watching as we begin looking ahead toward 2027.

Most importantly, we discuss why retirement planning isn't simply about making money when markets are good — it's about preparing your retirement for the periods when markets, taxes or both become much less cooperative.

You can do everything “right” and still feel unsure about spending in retirement. That’s why we brought on Dr. Wade Pfau, one of the most influential voices in retirement income planning, to talk through what actually works when the paycheck stops and real life takes over. We start with the assumptions many retirees bring to the table, especially the belief that expenses naturally fall, then unpack what the spending smile really means once inflation and health care enter the picture.

The market is hitting all-time highs, but the economy still feels tense for many families. In this episode, we explore the disconnect between strong portfolios and real-world financial pressure — from inflation and housing costs to the growing divide between corporate profits and everyday households.

We also discuss key insights from the retirement planning world, including why advanced tax planning has become a top concern for seven-figure retirees. If your plan is built only around investment returns, taxes, withdrawal timing, inflation, and income strategy can quietly reduce the retirement “win” you think you have.

We’ll also cover practical steps retirees can consider, including estate planning, gifting strategies, and building guaranteed cash flow beyond Social Security to help create more stability when markets eventually pull back.
