Relying on headlines, algorithms, or gut instinct can quietly put retirement plans at risk. In this episode, Evan Ward explains why many portfolios that look diversified are actually concentrated in the same few stocks—and how that risk becomes magnified as retirement approaches. The conversation explores income planning, sequence‑of‑returns risk, and the growing role of AI in financial decision‑making. Evan also breaks down where technology can help, where it falls short, and why a human‑guided strategy is helpful when replacing a paycheck and planning for decades of retirement.
