That “safe” cash sitting in your account might be quietly costing you more than you realize. In this episode of The Retirement Bullpen, Richard Warner breaks down the concept of dead money—funds parked in low‑yield accounts that fail to keep up with inflation. The conversation explores why idle cash can erode purchasing power over time, how retirees can balance liquidity with growth, and where tools like tiered reserves, annuities, and tax‑efficient strategies may fit. Richard also addresses common misconceptions around risk, taxes, and access to funds, emphasizing the importance of aligning money with purpose. An insightful discussion for anyone ahead of or in retirement rethinking where their money is—or isn’t—working.
