When retirement finally shows up, why does spending your own money feel so hard? In this episode, Ron Ray unpacks the emotional side of retirement income, including why people hesitate to use what they’ve saved. The conversation explores the idea of “permission to spend,” using simple analogies to explain how income layers, like Social Security and annuities, can create clarity and confidence. He also breaks down common misconceptions around annuities, why retirement planning is rarely all-or-nothing, and how customized strategies help address both financial and personal transitions, including identity, purpose, and lifestyle changes that come with retirement.
