But retirement planning isn't a weekend project.

In this episode, Drew Stevens, Retirement Decision Strategist, explores one of the biggest mistakes pre-retirees make—believing that a Roth conversion is simply a tax decision. In reality, every retirement decision has a ripple effect. Roth conversions can influence Social Security taxation, Medicare IRMAA premiums, Required Minimum Distributions, cash flow, survivor income, and your long-term retirement strategy.

The internet is an incredible source of information, but information without context can become expensive.

If you're approaching retirement or already retired, this conversation will challenge the way you think about financial decisions and explain why comprehensive retirement planning is about much more than individual tactics.

You'll walk away understanding why retirement success isn't built on isolated decisions—it's built on an integrated strategy.
