In this episode of Retirement Planning Happy Hour, we dive into a fascinating Retirement Happiness Index study from Australia and uncover a surprising truth: money ranks last among the drivers of a happy retirement.

So what really matters?

We break down the six key drivers of retirement happiness, including activities and hobbies, mental and physical health, purpose, social connections, and—finally—money. 

You’ll learn why retiring to something is far more important than retiring from something, how having a clear purpose can dramatically improve fulfillment, and why “enough” money matters more than “more” money.

We also explore:

- Why staying mentally and physically active is critical as we age

- The powerful link between health, purpose, and happiness

- How social connections impact longevity and quality of life

- Why people with a clear retirement plan experience less anxiety and more confidence

- The true role money plays in supporting—not defining—your retirement lifestyle

If you’re approaching retirement or already there, this episode will challenge the way you think about wealth, happiness, and what it really means to live well in your later years.

Because retirement isn’t about having the most money — it’s about building the most meaningful life.
