May 30, 2026 The Retirement Rules Are Changing: What You Need to Know
In this episode of Understanding Money with the Noles Group, the team explores a major update to one of retirement planning's most famous guidelines—the 4% rule. New research suggests retirees may be able to safely withdraw more from their portfolios than previously thought, but the answer isn't as simple as a new number.
The conversation also tackles growing concerns about Social Security's long-term future, what the latest trustee report means for future retirees, and why planning around potential benefit reductions may be more important than ever.
Plus, inflation is pushing projected Social Security COLAs higher for 2027, and the team explains why a larger benefit increase isn't always as positive as it sounds.
Finally, the show closes with an important discussion about the "widow's tax" and the financial challenges surviving spouses often face after losing a partner. Learn what proactive steps can help protect both spouses and create greater financial security.
If you'd like help building a retirement strategy tailored to your goals, reach out to the Noles Group for a complimentary consultation.
